Nokia, originally a paper mill established in 1865, transitioned into a major telecommunications company but faced decline with the rise of Android and iOS. Following its acquisition by HMD Global in 2016, Nokia began a recovery by leveraging its brand value, enhancing product features, and targeting diverse markets. The company faces challenges like low advertisement effectiveness, strong competition, and a need for timely product releases, alongside opportunities for ecosystem improvement and market share expansion.
