Following the outcome of the auction for the CDMA and Long Term Evolution (LTE) assets of Nortel, Nokia Siemens Networks remains focused on maintaining its leadership in the global wireless infrastructure industry and sustaining its recent momentum in the North American market.
Nokia Siemens Networks is well positioned to transition its leadership in 3G into long-term success in LTE throughout the network from the core IMS system it is building for Verizon Wireless to the Radio Access technology it is supplying with partner Panasonic to NTT DoCoMo in Japan. Nokia Siemens Networks has enjoyed recent wins in both Asia and Europe for LTE and is working on other prospects with customers across the globe.
“With our powerful R&D capacity, strong portfolio and Services capabilities and global scale and reach, Nokia Siemens Networks is positioned for long term success as one of the winners in a wireless industry that is rapidly consolidating around three vendors,” said Mika Vehvilainen, Chief Operating Officer of Nokia Siemens Networks. “Our LTE platform is winning a growing number of customers across the world and we are well positioned to deliver the benefits of next generation wireless technology to customers in North America and elsewhere.”
“Our final offer for Nortel’s assets represented a fair price, and we did not enter this process with a win-at-any-cost mindset,” said Bosco Novak, Chief Markets Operations Officer, Nokia Siemens Networks. “Ours was an opportunistic bid aimed at supporting the great progress we’ve made in North America in the past 18 months, and we are very confident that momentum will continue to grow.”
It appears that the competition of the mobile phone market will become more intense in the future .
