Nokia Networks[2][3] (formerly Nokia Solutions and Networks (NSN) and Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN)) is a multinational data networking and telecommunications equipment company headquartered in Espoo, Finland, and wholly owned subsidiary of Nokia Corporation. It started as a joint venture between Nokia of Finland and Siemens of Germany known as Nokia Siemens Networks.

Nokia Networks has operations in around 120 countries.[4] In 2013, Nokia acquired 100% of Nokia Networks, buying all of Siemens' shares.[5] In April 2014, the NSN name was phased out as part of a rebranding process.[3][6]
