Nokia was founded by Fredrik Idestam, a mining engineer, in 1865 in the town of Nokia, Finland.
Originally, Nokia was a paper pulp mill that expanded into producing rubber products, including tires, boots, and eventually telecommunications equipment.
Over the years, Nokia became one of the largest telecommunications companies in the world, producing a wide range of products including mobile phones, network equipment, and software.
While the company has undergone significant changes in recent years, it remains an important player in the telecommunications industry.
