NOKIA CONNECTION 2009: Discover, Connect, Experience Nokia's personalised solutions
Singapore - At the Nokia Connection event held in Singapore today, Nokia demonstrated its commitment to harness the power of the internet and mobility to deliver compelling services and solutions to consumers. Nokia announced a number of devices with solutions that can be personalised to connect people in new and better ways.
In a keynote at the opening ceremony of the event, Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer Mary McDowell said, "Nokia envisions a world where people will be empowered to share and connect with what matters most to them through highly personalised and contextually relevant solutions. To this end, Nokia is driving this transformation both as a company and externally to build a vibrant ecosystem and deliver relevant and delightful solutions to consumers."
"The Asia Pacific market has been an extremely important region for Nokia over the years and remains hugely important to Nokia. Asian consumers' eagerness to use technology makes this region a great place to introduce new devices and services. Singapore and many of its Southeast Asian neighbours represented here today will be among the first to take advantage of the future solutions Nokia intends to bring as we connect the planet so that everyone can participate," added Mary McDowell.
Chris Carr, Vice President of Sales in SEAP region, commented, "We are witnessing exciting developments in our industry driven by the rapid convergence of the internet and mobile. This is not only happening in advanced markets but for everyone. According to industry estimates, we have already reached the 4 billion mobile connections milestone globally early this year. The next phase of growth will be very much driven by the emerging markets, including Indonesia, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. Many of the population from these markets are accessing the internet, information, education, and entertainment on their first mobile. Nokia is playing a pivotal role in this transformation."
