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.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.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. 4. In 1992, Nokia launches its first digital handheld GSM phone, the Nokia 1011.In 1994, Nokia launches the 2100 series, the first phones to feature the Nokia Tune ringtone.The Nokia 2100 series goes on to sell 20 million phones worldwide.

While it was not totally unexpected, what caught Nokia off-guard is the rate at which competitors where innovating new technology.Since the launch of the iPhone/Android phones, Nokia failed to keep up with the industry. While other kept proceeding ahead aggressively by hook or crook. 8. If analyzed through the Technology Lens, Nokia primarily failed to innovate attractive technology and features.For example, though Nokia had touchscreen phones, it did not attract customers as much as compared to Apple iPhones.The software being developed were using old development models and newer concepts such as User Experience and User Interface were being neglected.Nokia was clinging onto Symbian OSfor too long. It had reached its peak. 9. With the company facing fierce competition, Nokia started reporting financial losses and started loosing grip on the market.Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, as President and CEO, saw the company's rise to become the world's preeminent mobile brand but was also at the helm as Nokia fell distantly behind a new wave of competition.He was seen off by the management and he was succeeded by Stephen Elop on September 21, 2010. 10. In 2011, Nokia joined forces with Microsoft to strengthen its position in the smartphone market.The strategic partnership saw Nokia dump Symbian OS and adopt the Windows Phone operating system and establish an alternative ecosystem to rivals iOS and Android. But it was too late.Under the leadership of the Stephen Elop, Nokia decided to stick to only and only Windows OS while Android was a free alternative.Nokia launched Windows Phones series dubbed as the Nokia Lumia. Fast-forward to 2013, Nokia has a full portfolio of great Windows Phone 8 smartphones, from a 520 through the award- winning Lumia 920 and the ground-breaking Lumia 1020, which enables photography never seen before in a smartphone. 11. 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.Stephen Elop facilitated this deal and his role in it has been questionable.Though Nokia is now reporting profits, it had lost its glory in the market it once dominated single- handedly. 12. While the entire smartphone OS industry was evolving, manufacturers moved on and adopted various operating systems like Android, Windows, Bada, Meego, et cetera, Nokia decided to stick to Windows OS only.As Android and iOS became more popular, Nokia and its windows phones failed to attract any attention.Though the new technologies developed by Nokia were ground breaking, they were not promising enough. 13. During the 3 years Elop was Nokia CEO, Nokia revenues fell 40%, Nokia profits fell 95%, Nokia market share collapsed in smartphones from 34% to 3.4% .Nokia's credit rating went from AAA to junk, Nokia's share price dropped 60% in value and Nokia's market capitalization lost a minimum of $13 Billion in value. The FINACIAL TIMES calculated that Nokia shareholders ended up paying Elop a bonus of 1 million Euros for every 1.5 Billion in market capital that Elop was able to destroy while Nokia CEO. 14. From Technology perspective, Nokia did not deliver as per expectations based on previous performanceFrom the Strategy perspective, though Nokia did eventually come up with nice lucrative products, it lost in the race against time due to poor strategies and sly competition.From the organizational and people perspective, the new CEOs attitude and competency proved to be fatal for the company.The entire Rubik of Organization , people and strategy failed to deliver for Nokia.
