In 2009 Nokia contributed 1.6% to Finland's GDP, and accounted for about 16% of Finland's exports in 2006. Over the past five years it has suffered a declining market share as a result of the growing use of touch screen smart phones from other vendors - principally the Apple iPhone and devices running on Googles Android operating system In a bid to recover, Nokia announced a strategic partnership with Microsoft in February 2011, as part of which all Nokia smartphones will incorporate Microsoft's Windows Phone operating system replacing Symbian.

Social factors: The social factors like attitude to technology and the desire for social connectivity have an important affect on the sale of mobile phones. Technological factors: Technological infrastructure of the market determines the kind of mobile phones that a manufacturer like Nokia can launch there .For instance, 4G mobile handsets couldnt be launched till very recently in China because of the lack of 4G technology infrastructure there.
