A Finnish company with headquarters in Espoo, Finland, Nokia started off as a paper production plant and then ventured into the world of multinational communications and information technology.
Nokia is known for its mobiles phones and portable IT devices and is today a conglomerate with branches in 120 countries. Nokia also produced commercial and military mobile radio communications technology as early as the 1960s and contributed to the development of the VHF radio as well. The NMT 900 was Nokia’s first offering to the world, made available in 1989 and its altime favorite Nokia 1100 was launched in 2003.

And in 1966, the company developed the ARP standard which is the first commercially operated public mobile network in Finland which went online and later offered complete coverage as well. The first Nokia mobiles were considered to be a status symbol for the rich and the powerful. Nokia was also a key player in the development of the GSM technology that carried both voice and data traffic which was adopted in 1987.

After diversifying multiple times into mutiple categories of products, in 1992, Nokia ...
... decided to concentrate solely on telecommunications which was the best strategy that it has ever adopted. It was only then that it started garnering huge sales numbers in countries other than Finland, leading to its position as the number 1 mobile manufacturer in the world by 1998, a position that it maintained for a long, long time till 2012.

The symbian phones of Nokia are world renowned for their sturdiness and has yet not been replaced. When alternate smartphone operating systems came into play, Nokia chose to compete against the norm and developed one of its own which resulted in the Lumia range of smartphones from Nokia. For the Indian markets, Nokia has come out with the Asha range of handsets that fit right into the budgets and quench the thirst for a phone that can do more than just make calls.
The signature Nokia tune came in the 1990s with the Nokia 2100 series which, even today, is one of the most recognized and established ringtones. Nokia is also responsible for creating addiction to the game of Snakes that kept millions of consumers occupied when they had nothing better to do.
