team up

Unite for action

To team up is to join forces with others for a shared purpose: She teamed up with her neighbor to organize the block party.

The phrase emphasizes collaboration—pooling skills or resources to accomplish something neither could do alone.

Often followed by "with": The two companies teamed up to develop the technology.
