Rajeev Suri (more accurately, Suurii, [soo-ree] which in colloquial Finnish means 'some big ones'), Finnish Nokia's Indian CEO:
Now, onto the second strategy pillar of expanding Networks sales through select vertical markets needing high-performing secure Networks. Pleasingly, we saw double-digit year-on-year growth in our order pipeline in most of our target verticals, including energy, public sector, transportation and technological extra-large enterprises, which include web-scale. For the first half overall, our efforts led to the addition of over 50 new companies to our win list in the vertical space, a far faster rate compared to the same period in 2016. As I'm sure, many of you've seen already, a big, second quarter highlight in our efforts to expand to new vertical markets was our launch of the world's most powerful Internet routing platforms, powered by Nokia's new FP4 silicon, the world's first multi-terabit chipset, that is many times faster and far smarter than anything on the market today -------------------- Time to buy NOK? Never in a million years!
