Return the company strategy, the purpose of which are high growth and high profits obtained through innovation and the production of high-quality products.
Retain ownership and control of Nokia software products.
Transform the hiring strategy, making it aimed at the best young talents from around the world.
Significantly increase efficiency by eliminating outdated and bureaucratic practices such as geographically distributed development and outsourcing.
At any cost, do not become another OEM iron manufacturer.
and the actions they plan to take if other shareholders support them:
Immediate removal of Stefan Elop from his duties as president and CEO of the company.
Restructuring of the alliance with Microsoft, for its appeal primarily to the North American market.
MeeGo will be the main platform of Nokia smartphones.
Increase the duration of Symbian support to at least 5 years.
Creating a development strategy based on Qt with a primary focus on MeeGo, as well as providing a transition for developers with Symbian.
End of distributed R & D.
End of R & D outsourcing.
Immediate removal of Tero Oyanpera, Niklas Sawander and Mary McDowell from their responsibilities in the company.
