teamups

Partners working together

Teamups are collaborative pairings or groupings, typically in entertainment or sports contexts.

Comic book fans discuss superhero teamups when characters from different series join forces, and wrestling promoters arrange teamups between popular performers.

The term also applies to business partnerships or creative collaborations: The album features several unexpected teamups between country and hip-hop artists.

Teamup functions as both noun and attributive modifier: a teamup episode, the ultimate teamup.
