gewinnbringend ergänzen

"Die Beispiele zeigen, dass Ökonomie und Ökologie keine Gegensätze sein müssen, sondern sich unter den richtigen Voraussetzungen gewinnbringend ergänzen"

The "Beispiele" are examples of Chamber of Industry and Commerce activities in the area of the environment. Can anyone help me find a tidy way of saying "gewinnbringend ergänzen"? Thank you!

Thanks Rónat. I was beginning to wonder if my version of 'complement each other' was spelled correctly.

compemlent each other

one option
the definition of complement according to one look dictionary: verb: make complete or perfect; supply what is wanting or form the complement to (Example: "I need some pepper to complement the sweet touch in the soup")
If you really wish, you could add "perfectly"
