The King's decline: Nokia's tragedy Once upon a time there was a giant who ruled the mobile world with iron fist ... At the dawn of the new millennium, Nokia was the undisputed king. Its resistant phones as tanks and its iconic snake game conquered 40% of the planet. In the streets of Helsinki, his engineers walked like Rockstars, sure that his reign would last forever. But in 2007, an earthquake shook Silicon Valley ... Steve Jobs presented the iPhone, and Nokia laughed. "Touctile screen? Without physical keyboard? Narrows!", They said in their luxurious offices. Meanwhile, in secret, their own smartphones prototypes could be in drawers, victims of a suffocating bureaucracy. Pride was his mortal sin. When Google offered Android to Nokia in a silver tray, the Finns rejected it. "We created our own systems," they said, ignoring that Symbian was a technological dinosaur. By the time they wanted to react, it was already late: Samsung and Apple had devoured their kingdom. The day of the trial arrived in 2013. Microsoft bought the remains of the Empire for $ 7.2 billion, such as who acquires a hunting trophy. Today, Nokia's old employees still whisper in the bars: *"We had everything to win ... at what time did we lose it?" * Moral for entrepreneurs: In the technological world, kings do not die of old age ... They fall for not seeing the revolution come.
