@nokia @nvidia 6G and Physical AI require AI native networks. @nokia and @nvidia are making the RAN intelligent so operators can build those networks today.

Yesterday was a great day in Allentown announcing Nokia’s expansion of advanced test and packaging in Pennsylvania—strengthening US photonic semiconductor production for AI-era networks. Thanks @GovernorShapiro @DaveMcCormickPA @RepMackenzie @CommerceGov.

@nokia I am thrilled to have Emma join #TeamNokia and to lead our Mobile Infrastructure business into the era of AI-native networks. Welcome Emma!

[Justin Hotard @justinhotard]

Europe has the talent, industrial scale, and companies to shape how AI moves into the physical world. But leadership won’t be decided by ambition—it will be decided by execution: cutting regulatory overlap, unlocking capital flows, and creating demand at scale so we build and deploy faster. #Europe #AI

Great to see @Inseego acquire our Fixed Wireless Access device business. They are the best owner to take it forward. @Nokia will become a shareholder. An important step, with a clear path forward for customers and for our people. @sarvikas thrilled to be working more closing with you.

@nokia @UN_Women Celebrating International Women’s Day. I am proud of our teams and partners driving Give to Gain and expanding digital skills. #IWD2026 #TeamNokia

Give to Gain: A Year of Shared Impact

In 2025, Nokia’s growing partnership with @UN_Women showed what’s possible when we invest in women and in turn, strengthen the digital economy for everyone, by giving women access to digital skills and opportunity.

40 emerging leaders from Nokia and our customers, including Telefónica Deutschland and Openreach, deepened their understanding of how gender equality fuels sustainable growth, innovation and better business outcomes.

When women thrive, communities, economies and organizations grow stronger.

Through mentoring, leadership development and partnerships like our ongoing collaboration with UN Women, Nokia remains committed to giving access, skills and support—so women in technology can gain opportunity, confidence and lasting impact.

Together, we’re bridging the digital gender divide by giving today and gaining a more inclusive future for all.

We built networks that connected people and connected information.
Now we’re building networks to connect intelligence. Thank you to our customers, partners and #TeamNokia for a great #MWC26!
@Nokia #ConnectingIntelligence

[Justin Hotard @justinhotard]

AI traffic requires autonomous networks that can adapt and execute — not just connect. At #MWC26 our team is demonstrating our agentic solutions that deliver optimal performance for all traffic; voice, data, and tokens. @nokia

[Justin Hotard @justinhotard]

On the ground at #MWC26 with #TeamNokia. Great conversations already with customers and partners on AI Native Networks.
We are off to the races. @nokia
