The development history of Nokia

Nokia's history began in 1865, when an engineer named Flederick Edstein set up a wood pulp factory by a river in northern Finland. With the rise of industrialization in Europe, the consumption of cardboard increased rapidly, and this factory named Nokia by engineers quickly became a fire. A community was formed around the factory, which was later named Nokia. Edelstein has also established an international sales network to export Nokia products to Russia, Britain and France. In 1930s, China also became one of Nokia's important trading partners. Finnish rubber processing factory was established in 1898, mainly producing boots. This factory soon became a neighbor of Nokia, because when two executives of the factory traveled in this area, they found that there were not only beautiful scenery around Nokia, but also water and electricity needed by the factory. In the 1920s, this factory began to use Nokia as their brand. Besides boots and tires, the factory continues to develop other rubber products, such as industrial rubber products, raincoats, carpets, balls and rubber toys. Cable-the foundation of telecom industry: Finnish cable factory was established in 19 12, located in the center of Helsinki. With the increasing demand for power transportation, telegraph and telephone networks, the demand for cables is also increasing. At first, the factory had only a few employees, but it developed rapidly. After World War II, the Finnish cable factory began to trade with the Soviet Union. Exports to western countries increased rapidly in the 1960s. 1922, the Finnish rubber processing factory purchased most of the shares of the Finnish cable factory, and the ownership of the three factories was gradually transferred to the same owner. Finally, at 1967, the three factories merged into Nokia Group. Since then, the company has developed into a group company including papermaking, chemical industry and rubber. The seeds of the development of Nokia's telecommunications sector were sown when the electronic department of 1960 cable factory was established, while the work of the telecommunications system began in 1962 cable factory, and its electronic department was already studying the radio transmission problem, thus laying the foundation for Nokia Telecom. By the time 1967 Nokia Group was founded, the electronics department had developed into a large department with 460 employees, and its net sales accounted for 3% of the whole group's net sales. 1969, Nokia first introduced PCM transmission equipment conforming to CCITI standard. By entering the digital age ahead of time, Nokia made the most important strategic choice in its history. In the early 1970s, Nokia began to occupy a larger and larger share in the cable and microwave transmission equipment market in neighboring Sweden, the Soviet Union and then the global market. Its customers include natural gas, oil and railway companies. In 1970s, Nokia's goal gradually changed to provide equipment for all-digital telecommunication networks. DX200 later became the basis of Nokia's mobile and fixed network switches and base station controllers. It was developed in the 1970s, which started the rapid and successful development of Nokia's switching system. Subsequently, mobile phones and more telecom infrastructure products were developed to meet the requirements of domestic and international customers. In 1980s and 1990s, Nokia became the pioneer of global digital communication technology. Mobile phone: The Nordic Mobile Phone Service Network (NMT) was opened at 198 1 with a frequency of 450 MHz. At that time, it was the first public cellular telephone network in the world, and it also had the largest coverage in several countries. With the opening of NMT, mobile phones also began to develop rapidly. Nokia's first NMT450 mobile phone (then called Mobira) was produced by Senator 1982. MobiraTalkman developed later was the most advanced product at that time. This product is very popular in the Nordic mobile phone network market and has opened up new markets for Nokia, including Britain and the United States. GSM- Global Mobile Phone Communication System: In the late 1980s, with the gradual unification of the European market, the European Advisory Committee on Posts, Telecommunications, Telephone and Telegraph decided to formulate a unified standard for the mobile phone industry and popularize it with digital technology. From the beginning, Nokia was the main developer of GSM technology. The first GSM conversation was held at 199 1 by Nokia Telephone Company through Nokia wireless network in Finland. GSM technology has laid the foundation for Nokia's global expansion. In the 1990s, the number of mobile phone users increased greatly, the price of mobile phones dropped rapidly, and mobile phones became smaller and smaller. Nokia pays more and more attention to the performance and design of mobile phones. They have long realized that mobile phones are personal technology products, which not only have perfect functions, but also must conform to the personal characteristics of users. The Nokia brand quickly became a symbol of affordability, simplicity and fashion. Today, several quality standards that determine the mobile phone industry are formulated by Nokia, such as large-scale graphic signals and battery indicators, color housings and personalized ringtones. Unique competitive environment: Nokia Telecom is strong because, unlike many other countries, Finland always encourages competition in the telecommunications industry. In the 1960s and 1970s, most telephone operators in Europe bought switches from national suppliers, and expensive research was also in the hands of several companies. However, in the Finnish market, the unique competitive situation dominates. Since the establishment of the country's first local telephone network 19 in the early 1990s, there have been several telephone operators in Finland, and they and the Finnish Post, Telephone and Telegraph Bureau have never automatically purchased equipment from national suppliers. Since entering the telecom market, fierce international competition and strong user demand have prompted Nokia to continuously develop new services and products. In other words, from the very beginning, Nokia has faced the competition from international competitors who have gained a foothold in the domestic open telecommunications market. Thanks to the opportunities created by innovative technologies and changing markets, Nokia has developed to its present scale. Going global: From 1962 to the mid-1970s, Nokia's share in the Finnish telecom market has been growing. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Nokia entered an important market in neighboring countries. In the 1980s, as deregulation measures began to create more opportunities in Europe and the United States, the company's sales also increased rapidly. At that time, Nokia CEO KariKairamo strongly encouraged the company to enter new markets, and 70% of the net sales of 1988 came from countries outside Finland. In addition to mobile phones, Nokia's overseas telecommunications services also include mobile phone networks (Nordic mobile phone services NMT and GSM), dedicated official networks and application networks, optical transmission systems and other products and solutions. Market-centered solution: In the mid-1980s, Nokia mobile phones entered the American market through Tandy Radio Cabin Company's store. In order to produce the AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone System) simulator sold by Tandy, the company and Tandy established a joint production plant in Korea on 1985. At the same time, with the increasing globalization of the market, the business concept has also changed from technology-centric to market-centric. With the increasing importance of marketing, the importance of customer service, quick transfer and production time has also increased. Seamless connection and employees' personal responsibility for quality have become the core issues of Nokia's business. Going to the international financial market: Nokia's strength is increasing and it is becoming more and more international, at the same time, it has also begun to attract the attention of the international financial market. Nokia is the oldest listed company in Helsinki Stock Exchange (starting from 19 15), and it is also listed in Fondbors, London, Frankfurt, Paris and new york. The focus is on the telecommunications industry: by the 1990s, Nokia had made it clear that it would develop into a wealthy company. While focusing on the telecommunications business, Nokia's business scope has expanded rapidly with the rapid development of the telecommunications industry. Today, Nokia is the global leader in mobile communication. With its experienced, innovative, user-friendly and reliable solutions, Nokia has become a leading mobile phone provider and one of the leading providers of mobile, fixed broadband and IP networks. By organically combining mobility with the Internet, Nokia not only creates more business opportunities for enterprises, but also enriches people's daily lives. Nokia shares are listed in the six major securities markets around the world, with shareholders all over the world. In recognition of the largest local industrial facilities and employers, Pohjois-Pirkkala Town was founded in 1937, and was renamed Nokia Town one year later. 1977, Nokia Town was upgraded to Nokia City. Nokia's logo is a sable crawling in a blue stream. Nokia Development Editor This paragraph China Nokia Nokia Corporation is a multinational company that produces mobile communication products, and its headquarters is in Finland. In the mobile phone product market, Nokia has occupied the first position in the market share for many years. In 2005, Nokia shipped about 264 million mobile phones, which was 1.8 times that of the second-ranked Motorola (its shipment was 654.38+45 million, and its market share was about 17.7%), accounting for 32 1% of the global market share. In addition, its strength in the fields of communication network equipment manufacturing (mainly GSM and WCDMA networks) and mobile multimedia application development is also in the forefront of the world, and it can provide wireless connection solutions for enterprise users. 1990 Nokia was on the verge of bankruptcy because of its extensive industrial fields. Later, the boss decided to focus on only one thing-mobile phones and give up all other industries (including selling a pharmaceutical factory with an annual profit of 8 million US dollars). Five years later, it made a comeback. Today, Nokia focuses on the research and development and manufacturing of mobile communication-related products, including mobile phone products and multimedia, entertainment, communication networks and enterprise-level solutions. Nokia is a global leader in mobile communication, and is committed to providing easy-to-use and safe products for mobile network operators and enterprise users, including mobile phones, images, games, media and solutions, thus enriching people's lives and improving work efficiency. Nokia shares are listed in the five major securities markets around the world, with shareholders all over the world. In 2007, Nokia achieved net sales of 5 1 1 billion euros (about 7.61billion dollars) and profit income of 7.2 billion euros (about 654.38+0.6 billion dollars). By the end of 2005, the company had 14 factories in 8 countries around the world, and set up R&D centers in 1 1 countries, with about 58,800 employees. As a listed company, Nokia is listed in Helsinki, Finland, Stockholm, Sweden, Frankfurt, Germany and new york, USA. Nokia's sustainable development goal Nokia firmly believes that supporting sustainable development is an important factor for the company to achieve long-term success in all business fields, and it is also the key for Nokia to maintain its leading position in the mobile communication industry. Nokia aims to be a leader in sustainable products and services. Nokia secretly edited this paragraph 10. The name of Nokia Town comes from a local river. This river is called "Nokianvirta", which means sable in Finnish. This animal is now extinct. 9. Nokia is sometimes called "aikon" by non-Nokia users and mobile software developers because "aikon" is used in many SDK packages, including Nokia's own Symbian S60 SDK. 8. Unlike other mobile phones, Nokia's call timer will not start automatically when the call is connected, but at the beginning of the call (except S60 series mobile phones, such as Nokia 6600). 7. Nokia ranked 20th among the most admired companies in Fortune magazine in 2006 (network communication industry 1, fourth among non-American companies). 6. In Asia, the mobile phone with the number 4 has never appeared in Nokia mobile phones, because in many parts of South Asia and East Asia, 4 is considered unlucky. 5. The font of Nokia Company is AgfaMonotype Nokia Sans font, originally designed by Eric Speakman. Agfa Rotis Sans font is the most commonly used font in Nokia advertisements and mobile phone user manuals. 4. The "special" ringtone when a Nokia mobile phone receives a short message is "SMS" (short message service) of Morse code, and the "gradually enhanced" ringtone is the "connector" of Morse code (was it translated into "people-oriented technology" at that time? ), the "standard" of SMS ringtone is the "M" of Morse code (representing "message" and "information"). Nokia is now the largest manufacturer of digital cameras in the world, so its camera phone sales exceed any camera manufacturer. 2. Actually, the first commercial GSM telephone was made in Helsinki at 199 1 through the network supported by Nokia. The caller was Finnish Deputy Prime Minister Harry Holkeri, using a Nokia mobile phone. 1, Nokia's iconic ringtone "Nokia Tone" was actually adapted from19th century guitar work "Granvals" by Spanish musician Francesco Tarrega. This ringtone was originally called "Grande Valse" in Nokia phones. 1998, this ringtone is widely known, and it is called "Nokia Tone". Nokia renamed it and still uses it today. Nokia's latest market share survey exceeds 36%, and the gap with the second place continues to widen! This enterprise brand ranks seventh in the list of the top 500 brands in the world compiled by the World Brand Lab in 2006, and thirty-fifth in the list of global 100 big companies published by Barron's Weekly in 2006. This enterprise ranked 1 19 in the ranking of fortune 500 enterprises in the world in 2007. Nokia Public Welfare Nokia has always been committed to becoming a good corporate citizen and contributing to local development on a global scale. Nokia puts forward that science and technology is people-oriented, which not only enhances interpersonal communication and improves people's quality of life through advanced science and technology, products and services, but also cultivates local sustainable development potential. Global Public Welfare Our goal is to become an outstanding corporate citizen and a responsible and dedicated member of society in all regions where we operate globally. Since China's public welfare undertakings entered China, Nokia has been committed to becoming the best partner and outstanding corporate citizen in China, and put forward that science and technology should be people-oriented. Nokia said so and did the same. Nokia's 20-year China complex not only promotes people's communication and improves people's quality of life through advanced technology, products and services, but also cultivates China's sustainable development potential. Therefore, Nokia actively participates in and sponsors a series of social welfare undertakings such as culture, sports and education.
