Hurray! Nokia Is 150yrs Old Today by ochuski(op): 1:26pm On May 12, 2015
Did you know: Nokia turns 150
years old today. Did you know
Nokia might have sold its phone
division to Microsoft, but the
company retains its networking
and mapping business, and it’s
still in business after… 150 years.
Yes, it’s been 150 years since
Nokia was set up in 1865 as a
wood pulp mill in Finland near
the Nokianvirta river. It started
off making paper that it sold to
Russia, the UK and France. It later
evolved to make rubber (you can
still see Nokian car tires), and
after World War Two Nokia made
the most crucial investment in its
history by buying Finnish Cable
Works.
In the late sixties, three
companies joined to form Nokia
Group, and started making
electronic devices. This set the
foundation for the iconic Nokia
phones in the 90s, early 2000s,
and all the way until this day.
As a tribute to its long and event-
rich history, Nokia put up a neat
video about the history of the
company (you can watch at phonearena dot com). It’s also worth pointing
out that Nokia has a contract
with Microsoft that forbids it
from using its brand on phones
until late 2016, but - despite
official denials - rumors persist
that Nokia might return to the
phone business right after that
agreement expires. We, for once,
can’t wait. Share with us your very first nokia phone to mark this day
