or ten years. Therefore, I am pleased that we have concluded a
solid agreement with one of the world's most powerful network
providers."

most optimal operation and making our network ready for the
future."

"Telia and Telenor are focused on exceeding the requirements of
their customers. In selecting their new managed services provider,
the operators highlighted the need for experience, quality,
capacity and, not least, security. Nokia will provide the two
operators services that will allow them to deliver the best
experience to their customers."
The contract win underlines Nokia's strength in services, a
strategic differentiator for the company that helps customers
