German term or phrase: direkt oder über ihre Tochter- und Joint-Venture-Gesellschaften

Es geht um einen Auszug aus dem Handelsregister; irgendwie bekomme ich den Satz nicht ganz hin:

Gegenstand der Gesellschaft ist die Beteiligung an Geschäftsaktivitäten der Elektronikbranche sowie die Ausübung von damit verbundenen Handels- und Dienstleistungsaktivitäten, die entweder *direkt, oder über * ihre Tochter- und Joint-Ventrure-Gesellschaften erfolgt.

-->Object of the company is.....which *are effected either direct or via* its subsidiary...... ????

Danke!

...direkt, oder über... ...direct, or via its subsidiaries or joint-venture...

Explanation:
It probably has the territory divided up into areas, for example as a result of taking over, or merging with other companies, with higher profile in other areas from which the initial company may have withdrawn. This, to leave the field clear to the subsidiary, and not compete in effect with itself.

to participate either directly or indirectly...

Explanation:
You have "erfolgen" here. Typically I find the noun it refers to and switch it to a verb, then rearrange the structure a bit...

The company's purpose / Object of the company is to participate, either directly or indirectly through / via ....
