Diamond Member Pelican Press 0 Posted May 29, 2024 Diamond Member Share Posted May 29, 2024 Nokia Plans to Cut Up to 310 Jobs in Technologies Unit, Halt Ozo VR Camera Development Nokia plans to reduce up to 310 jobs from its Nokia Technologies unit and halt development of its virtual reality camera Ozo and hardware, the Finnish company said on Tuesday. The unit has about 1,090 employees and the potential cuts are expected to affect staff in Finland, the ******* States and Britain. Nokia employed about 102,000 employees as of end-June. The unit will continue to focus on digital health and patent and brand licensing business, Nokia said. “The slower-than-expected development of the VR market means that Nokia Technologies plans to reduce investments and focus more on technology licensing opportunities,” it said in a statement. Nokia, whose main business is now telecoms network equipment, launched the camera last year as the first device for its digital media business, one of its new hopes for future growth. It was designed for making 3D movies and games that can be watched and played with virtual reality headsets. Nokia cut the price of the camera by 25 percent to $45,000 later last year. © Thomson Reuters 2017 This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up nokia plans to cut up to 310 jobs in technologies unit halt ozo vr camera development nokia,ozo,job cuts,layoffs,telecom,apps,cameras #Nokia #Plans #Cut #Jobs #Technologies #Unit #Halt #Ozo #Camera #Development This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up 0 Quote Link to comment https://hopzone.eu/forums/topic/39557-nokia-plans-to-cut-up-to-310-jobs-in-technologies-unit-halt-ozo-vr-camera-development/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
