Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks prepare for growth of telecommunications in Africa at CTO Roundtable
Telecommunications technology will in the coming years have a profound impact on many societies in Africa, contributing largely to the economic growth and wealth of millions of people on the continent. 
This development, and issues related to the regulatory environment supporting the foreseen growth, will be the major themes of the Commonwealth Telecommunications Organisation's (CTO) European-African Telecommunications Roundtable in Helsinki and Bonn, a meeting that will bring together leading decision makers from Africa, Europe and the telecoms industry.
Espoo, Finland - The CTO meeting will assemble high-level telecommunications officials from the organisation's African member countries, with participants representing communications ministries and regulators from Ghana, Kenya, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, and Uganda. Officials from Finnish and German government and industry will also take part.
The roundtable is built around themes including the telecommunications ecosystem: the socio-economic impact of information and communication technology (ICT) and telecommunications, case studies from countries including Finland, and how similar development can be encouraged in New Growth Markets; and Europe-Africa cooperation, including European ICT initiatives in Africa and project financing.
Nokia Siemens Networks and Nokia are playing a key role in the meeting, contributing speakers and engaging in the dialogue that aims to increase understanding between the two continents, initiate concrete projects and lay the foundation for future discussions.
"While people around the world share the universal desire to connect with others, Nokia has dedicated itself to develop an unparalleled insight into the specific needs and aspirations of individuals in emerging markets. Less than a month ago, Nokia launched seven new phones based on this in-depth understanding, which are not only designed to be accessible to these consumers, but to also help spark development within the communities that they live and work," said Veli Sundback, executive vice president of corporate relations and responsibility for Nokia.
"By 2015 we expect five billion people will be connected by wire and wirelessly from one end of the planet to the other, and the clear majority of these people will come from new growth markets in Asia and Africa. We are committed to connecting the world, and this event is an excellent opportunity to engage key stakeholders to help make this vision a reality," said Lauri Kivinen, head of corporate affairs, Nokia Siemens Networks.

Nokia Growth Partners Fund increased with 100 Million USD
Establishes a new Fund of Funds and special focus on China and India
John Gardner and Paul Asel to co-manage the fund
Menlo Park, Calif., US and Espoo, Finland - Nokia Growth Partners, a global private equity and venture capital management firm backed by Nokia, today announced a significant expansion of the group's investment plans providing an additional $100million investment into a Fund of Funds program with a special focus on emerging technology markets, including India and China. The firm also announced that John Gardner and Paul Asel, two industry veterans, will lead the expansion effort. 
Launched in 2004, Nokia Growth Partners' inaugural $100 million Venture Capital Fund invests directly into growth stage technology companies that share an alignment of business interests with Nokia.
Nokia Growth Partners has now created a Fund of Funds program targeting an additional $100 million of investments in top tier venture funds that offer access to emerging markets and/or exposure to innovative technologies in domain areas beyond the scope of Nokia's traditional core businesses. 
Building on the earlier successes of its direct investment Venture Capital Fund, Nokia Growth Partners will also devote additional resources to increase its activity in Asia, with specific emphasis on China and India. Nokia Growth Partners will be managing a combined $200 million of capital between the Venture Capital Fund and the Fund of Funds program. 
"Over the past decade, Nokia has crafted an innovative, systematic and sustainable strategy to private equity and venture capital", says Rick Simonson, CFO of Nokia. "An important tenet at Nokia is to strive to be "best in class" in all areas of operations.  Our investment in BlueRun Ventures, a global early stage venture capital fund, and Nokia Growth Partners, a strategic global growth fund, provides Nokia with a holistic approach to gaining access to the innovation and partnering opportunities created in a broad slice of the venture capital industry spectrum, all on a disciplined, return on investment basis.  The expansion of the Nokia Growth Partners platform into fund of funds investing is the logical next step in this continuum." 
Nokia is driving to mobilize the Internet. According to Tero Ojanperä, Nokia's Executive Vice President and CTO, much of the outside innovation Nokia is looking to find, lies in areas beyond the company's traditional core businesses.
