The story so far.


In 1865, mining engineer Fredrik Idestam sets up his first wood pulp mill at
the Tammerkoski Rapids in Southwestern Finland. A few years later he opens
a second mill on the banks of the Nokianvirta river, which inspires him to
name his company Nokia Ab in 1871.
How apt that Nokia begins by making paper one of the most influential
communications technologies in history.

The galoshes revolution.


OK, so its not exactly a revolution. But in 1898, Eduard Poln founds the
Finnish Rubber Works, which later becomes Nokias rubber business, making
everything from galoshes to tires.
Nokia rubber boots become a bona fide design classic, still on sale to this
day though we no longer make them.

Electronics go boom.
In 1912, Arvid Wickstrm sets up the Finnish Cable Works, the foundation of
Nokias cable and electronics business.
By the 1960s, Finnish Cable Works already working closely with Nokia Ab
and the Finnish Rubber Works starts branching out into electronics. In 1962,
it makes its first electronic device in-house: a pulse analyzer for use in
nuclear power plants.
In 1963, it starts developing radio telephones for the army and emergency
services Nokias first foray into telecommunications. In time, the companys
MikroMikko becomes the best known computer brand in Finland. And by
1987, Nokia is the third largest TV manufacturer in Europe.

Three become one.


Having been jointly owned since 1922, Nokia Ab, Finnish Cable Works and
Finnish Rubber Works officially merge in 1967. The new Nokia Corporation
has five businesses: rubber, cable, forestry, electronics and power
generation. But as the 1980s come into view, its an entirely new industry
that makes Nokia a household name around the world.
By the late 1970s and early 1980s it seems everything from Tom Sellecks
mustache to JR Ewings list of enemies is seriously big. And as the mobile

communications revolution starts to gather momentum, the early handsets


continue the trend.
The new Nokia Corporation is ideally placed to take a pioneering role in this
new industry, leading the way with some iconic and by todays standards,
very large products.

The mobile era begins.


Nokia sets the ball rolling in 1979, creating radio telephone company Mobira
Oy as a joint venture with leading Finnish TV maker Salora. Then in 1981, the
Nordic Mobile Telephone (NMT) service, the worlds first international cellular
network and the first to allow international roaming, is launched.
The NMT standard catches on fast and the mobile phone industry begins to
expand rapidly. In 1982, Nokia introduces the first car phone the Mobira
Senator to the network. That same year, the Nokia DX200, the companys
first digital telephone switch, goes into operation.

Good enough for Gorbachev.


In 1984, Nokia launches the Mobira Talkman portable car phone. Resembling
a military field telephone, its a fairly cumbersome piece of kit but its a
start.
Then in 1987, Nokia introduces the Mobira Cityman, the first handheld
mobile phone for NMT networks. Despite weighing in at 800 grams and a
price tag of 24,000 Finnish Marks (around EUR 4,560), it goes on to become a
classic. The Cityman even earns a nickname, the Gorba, after Soviet leader
Mikhail Gorbachev is pictured using one to make a call from Helsinki to his
communications minister in Moscow.
Over the next decade, millions of consumers worldwide enjoy their very own
Gorbachev moment as the mobile revolution takes hold.
In 1987, GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) is adopted as the
European standard for digital mobile technology. With its high-quality voice
calls, international roaming and support for text messages, GSM ignites a
global mobile revolution.
As a key player in developing this new technology, Nokia is able to take full
advantage.

A new direction.
On July 1, 1991, Finnish Prime Minister Harri Holkeri makes the worlds first
GSM call, using Nokia equipment. And in 1992, Nokia launches its first digital
handheld GSM phone, the Nokia 1011.
That same year, new Nokia President and CEO Jorma Ollila makes a crucial
strategic decision: to focus exclusively on manufacturing mobile phones and
telecommunications systems. Nokias rubber, cable and consumer
electronics divisions are gradually sold off.

Name that tune.


In 1994, Nokia launches the 2100 series, the first phones to feature the
Nokia Tune ringtone. Based on Gran Vals, a classical guitar piece composed
by Francisco Tarrega in the 19th century, it is probably one of the most
frequently played pieces of music in the world. The Nokia 2100 series goes
on to sell 20 million phones worldwide. Nokias target was 400,000.
1994 also sees the worlds first satellite call, made using a Nokia GSM
handset.
Hear Gran Vals, the inspiration for the Nokia Tune.

Snake bites.
In 1997, everybody knows their Snake high score. An instant classic, the
addictive game is launched on the Nokia 6110, and by 2010 its successors
are available on an estimated 350 million mobile phones.

On top of the world.


By 1998, Nokia is the world leader in mobile phones. The strategic decision
to focus on telecommunications, plus the early investment in GSM, has paid
off. Between 1996 and 2001, Nokias turnover increases almost fivefold from
EUR 6.5 billion to EUR 31 billion.
As the new millennium dawns, everything changes. New technology enables
the Internet to go mobile, opening up a world of possibilities for mobile users.
No longer are phones just for phone calls.

Multitasking mobiles.
In 1999, Nokia launches the Nokia 7110, a phone capable of rudimentary
web-based functions, including email. Then in November 2001 Nokia

launches its first phone with a built-in camera, the Nokia 7650, and in
September 2002 its first video capture phone, the Nokia 3650.
However, its when Nokia launches its first 3G phone (third generation), the
Nokia 6650, in 2002 that things really take off. With 3G technology, phones
can now be used to browse the web, download music, watch TV on the
move, and more.
Mobiles will never be the same again.

One billion and counting.


In 2005, Nokia sells its billionth phone a Nokia 1100 in Nigeria, and global
mobile phone subscriptions pass 2 billion. Two years later, Nokia is
recognised as the 5th most valued brand in the world.
Things have come a long way since Fredrik Idestam opened his paper mill.

Building networks for the future.


In 2007, Nokia combined its telecoms infrastructure operations with those of
Siemens to form a joint venture named Nokia Siemens Networks. NSN grows to
become a leading global provider of telecommunications infrastructure, with a focus
on offering innovative mobile broadband technology and services. In 2013, Nokia
acquires Siemens 50% stake in NSN, which becomes Nokia Solutions and Networks,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nokia.

Putting the world on the map.


2008 marks an important milestone for Nokia, as the company acquires
NAVTEQ, the US-based maker of digital mapping and navigational software.
Nokia, which had already been investing in mapping for many years, was
now even more serious about providing people with the very best in locationbased services. Fast forward to the present day, and Nokia is now offering
location-based services through the HERE brand.

Treading lightly.
For years, Nokia has been working to make its business practices and
products as environmentally and socially responsible as possible from
creating eco-friendly handsets and establishing phone recycling schemes to
bringing the benefits of mobility to emerging markets. This commitment to
sustainability is recognized in a number of prestigious rankings.

A meeting of minds.
In 2011, Nokia announces it is joining forces with Microsoft to strengthen its
position in the smartphone market. The strategic partnership sees Nokia
smartphones adopt the Windows Phone operating system and establish an
alternative ecosystem to rivals iOS and Android. Nokia also kicks off a
sequence of changes designed to enable it to build better products, faster.
These changes include a revitalization of Nokias company culture, where
speed, accountability and results are central.
Nokia launches its first Windows Phones, the Nokia Lumia 800 and the Nokia
Lumia 710, in October 2011. Fast-forward to 2013 and Nokia has a full
portfolio of great Windows Phone 8 smartphones, from the Lumia 520
through the award-winning Lumia 920 and the ground-breaking Lumia 1020,
which enables photography never seen before in a smartphone. At the same
time, the company continues to be committed to offering affordable phones
which combine great design and an intuitive user interface with compelling,
localized experiences. The Asha line of devices are bestsellers in numerous
countries around the globe.

The next chapter.


A company which has embraced change throughout its 150-year history
looks to reinvent itself once again. In September 2013, Nokia announces that
it has entered into an agreement with Microsoft whereby Microsoft would
purchase substantially all Devices & Services, the Nokia business which
makes mobile phones and smartphones. The transaction is subject to
approval by Nokia's shareholders, regulatory approvals and other closing
conditions.
Building on the partnership with Nokia and the increasing success of Nokia's
Lumia smartphones, Microsoft aims to accelerate the growth of its share and
profit in mobile devices through faster innovation, increased synergies, and
unified branding and marketing. For Nokia, the transaction is expected to be
significantly accretive to earnings, strengthen its financial position, and
provide a solid basis for future investment in its continuing businesses.
Following the transaction, Nokia plans to focus on its three established
businesses, each of which is a leader in enabling mobility in its respective
market segment: NSN, a leader in network infrastructure and services; HERE,
a leader in mapping and location services; and Advanced Technologies, a
leader in technology development and licensing.
The next chapter begins.
