Nokia helped define the mobile era. Now it’s trying to shape what comes next.

As artificial intelligence transforms how networks are built and managed, the Finnish telecom giant is betting on AI-driven infrastructure, 6G and a more software-centric future. But with fierce competition from rivals including Huawei and Ericsson — and more than $200 billion in market value at stake — Nokia’s next reinvention may be its most ambitious yet.

Watch the video above to learn more about Nokia’s bet on AI-powered networks, and whether it can stay ahead in the race to build the future of global connectivity.

This is the third installment in CNBC’s “Built for Billions” three-part series on Nokia. Don’t miss part one, where we explore how Nokia makes money today, and part two, which examines why the company missed the smartphone shift.
