About us

Our vision and strategy

Nokia’s mission is simple: Connecting People. Our goal is to build great mobile products that enable billions of people worldwide to enjoy more of what life has to offer. Our challenge is to achieve this in an increasingly dynamic and competitive environment.

Ideas. Energy. Excitement. Opportunities. In today's mobile world, it feels like anything is possible - and that's what inspires us to get out of bed every day.

Moving with rapidly changing times

From Rio de Janeiro to Nairobi, Berlin to Mumbai, mobile technology is changing our world. How can we make the most of the opportunities in our everyday lives? How can we keep a sense of identity as societies, economies and governments change all around us? We found people everywhere connected by a shared excitement for its potential.

Key elements of Nokia’s strategy:
  • build a new winning mobile ecosystem in partnership with Microsoft
  • bring the next billion online in developing growth markets
  • invest in next-generation disruptive technologies
  • increase our focus on speed, results and accountability

Regaining leadership in the smartphone space

To help us achieve our mission, Nokia has formed a strategic partnership with Microsoft that will, we hope, see us regain lost ground in the smartphone market. Together, we intend to build a global ecosystem that surpasses anything currently in existence. The Nokia-Microsoft ecosystem will deliver differentiated and innovative products with unrivalled scale in terms of product breadth, geographical reach and brand identity.

Connecting the next billion

In feature phones, Nokia’s strategy is to leverage its innovation and strength in growth markets to connect even more people to their first internet and application experience. By providing compelling, affordable and localised mobile experiences, particularly to emerging markets, our ambition is to bring the next billion online.

We will continue the renewal of our Series 40 platform in QWERTY, touch & type, dual SIM, Nokia services, including Maps, Browser, Life Tools, Web apps and Money. We are also investing in the future; developing assets (platform, software, apps), which will bring a modern mobile experience to consumers and enable business opportunities for developers.

Driving change

Our new strategy is supported by changes in Nokia’s leadership, operational structure and approach. The renewed governance will expedite decision-making and improve time-to-market of products and innovations, placing a heavy focus on results, speed and accountability.

Nokia’s strategy is about investing in and ensuring Nokia’s future. “I have incredible optimism,” said Stephen Elop, Nokia President and CEO, “because I can see fresh opportunity for us to innovate, to differentiate, to build great mobile products, like never before, and at a speed that will surpass what we have accomplished in the past.”
