Hillasma called the move "transformational change", but he pledged that Nokia would remain a strong company. "After stripping the mobile device and services business, Nokia will look very different. But it is still a strong company, with good financial position, three strong business--nsn,here and High-tech business, each is the industry leader in technology and innovation. "Nokia Solutions and Network Services (NSN), which focus on telecommunications equipment and mobile broadband, are business-wide and Hillasma consider this a powerful and independent business:" NSN provides professional services in mobile broadband and is particularly powerful in LTE. We invest a lot in research and development and will continue to offer unique and innovative solutions, just like the mobile content caching service liquid applications, released at the beginning of the year in Barcelona. "Here is Nokia's core business, providing real-time traffic information, maps and other cloud-based support services to facilitate the drivers of networked vehicles." Nokia also just announced in Tuesday that it will work with Mercedes-Benz to provide map services for unmanned vehicles. The new technology is actually Nokia's research and development department, which will focus on building a rich portfolio of Nokia's patents.

We have established a successful patent and technology licensing system, and in the future we will continue to expand this business to increase profits. "One of the issues that Nokia is continuing to address is the search for a new chief executive, because Stephen Elop, the company's current chief executive, will return to Microsoft with the deal," Elop said. Internet services and franchises do not sound as cool as the handset business, but Nokia will have to rely on these businesses to survive in the future. West)
