#TeamNokia is delivering on its commitments, and our strong Q3 results show it. Demand is accelerating for the advanced connectivity that only Nokia can deliver. We are investing to win, accelerating growth and improving operating leverage.
AI is reshaping industries, and the demand for the infrastructure that powers it continues to grow.
In Q3, we delivered strong net sales and profit growth and continued to deliver on our commitments as we execute against our strategy.
From AI data centers to AI-powered mobile networks, we're helping build the connectivity foundation for the AI era.
We remain focused on delivering our full-year commitments and building the foundation for sustained growth and long-term value for our customers and shareholders. nokia.ly/4yzD9i6
*Unless otherwise stated, all figures related to net sales are on a constant currency year-on-year basis and all figures related to profit are on a comparable basis. This post may contain forward-looking statements based on current assumptions and expectations that are subject to risks and uncertainties as outlined in Nokia Annual Report on Form 20-F 2025.
AI-RAN just hit a big milestone.
Together with @TMobile, we have completed the world’s first live voice call over AI-RAN on their network in Seattle.
AI-native mobile networks that can sense, decide and act are proving they can also run today’s voice and data traffic more efficiently.
Legacy architectures simply cannot compete.
My thanks to the teams across @nvidia, @TMobile, and @nokia, who made this world-first possible and to @SriniGopalan and @JensenHuang for their continued partnership and shared vision.

Always enjoy a conversation with @ArjunKharpal, and on @CNBC’s latest Tech Download we talked about AI, the infrastructure needed to scale, and the critical role networks play as AI moves from data centers to the edge.
As AI moves from experimentation to deployment, one thing is becoming clear: AIs future depends on the networks that connect it.
From data centers to devices, vehicles, industrial systems and the edge, AI is driving new demands on connectivity. Networks will need to do far more than move data. They will need to connect intelligence wherever it is needed, securely, reliably and in real time.
In @CNBC's The Tech Download, hosted by @ArjunKharpal our President and CEO, @justinhotard, discusses why connectivity is becoming the foundation of the AI era, from AI factories and data centers to AI-native networks and physical AI.

Europe's security architecture is evolving. Technology is the driving force and sovereignty requires competitiveness. These were key themes at yesterday’s @HelSecForum where I shared the stage with @iceye_global’s @rmodrzewski and @KirsiHeikel from @business. As physical AI and autonomous systems reshape defense, it’s clear that strengthening security requires sovereign connectivity. #DefenseTech #Connectivity
Thank you @CNBC's @cnbcKaren and Steve Sedgwick for the conversation today about the trusted infrastructure we are building to scale AI responsibly and Europe’s need to accelerate its investment.
Speaking with @cnbcKaren and Steve Sedgwick on @CNBC today, Nokia President and CEO @justinhotard discussed what it will take to scale AI — from the infrastructure needed to support it to the technology ecosystems and partnerships that make it possible.
By combining trusted connectivity, AI-ready infrastructure and strong partnerships, Nokia is helping customers build and scale for an AI-powered future.

19 operators signed up for initial deployments starting later this year.
20% downlink spectral efficiency demonstrated
Multiple AI-native app partners including
@pulsone, @ZaiNarTech, and @deepsignl
Radio Networks that can sense, plan, and, act. AI is here for radio networks and @Nokia and @Nvidia are bringing it to the world first.
AI-RAN momentum is accelerating.
Operators including @TA_Group, @ChunghwaTelecom, @dutweets, @eAndGroup, @Mobily, @stc_ksa, @TPG_Telecom, and @ZainKSA are advancing AI-RAN initiatives with Nokia and @nvidia as the industry moves toward AI-native 6G. While trials with operators previously announced, including @docomo, continue to progress steadily 🚀

Congratulations to @arthurmensch and the @MistralAI team on another successful raise. Your success is another validation of the demand for open models. It underscores the importance of model diversity as an enabler of innovation and adoption.
Congratulations @ipallavimahajan! It is wonderful to see Women AI Builders recognize something we all knew. We appreciate all you are doing to make @nokia a global AI connectivity leader!
Congratulations to Pallavi Mahajan, Nokia's Chief Technology and AI Officer, on being named one of the Top 100 Women in AI 2026 by @WomenTechNet. Inspiring leadership helping drive our AI-native future.

Physical AI will drive a new scale of AI compute demand and bring it to the network edge. Excited to see our partner @Nscale build this infrastructure for @Figure_robot. @Nokia we are hard at work to ensure #AIRAN will be ready to serve the tokens at the edge as these robots become a part of our everyday lives.
A strong open model ecosystem is essential for everyone building AI. Congratulations to @jensen @nvidia and @HuggingFace.
Exciting day for NVIDIA and @huggingface.
Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. They allow every developer, startup, university, industry and country to build with, customize and benefit from AI.
Thank you @ClementDelangue for coming to me.
NVIDIA is going to be a great home for Hugging Face, its community and the future of open models. 🤗
