Wipro Acquires Nokia’s Mobile TV Division
Indian telecommunication companies plan to focus on video content as 3G continues to expand in the second most populated country. This is why Wipro bought the mobile TV division from Nokia. Nokia’s Mobile Broadcast Solution is a server platform based on DVB-H. “We wanted to focus on the consumer side of things, the mobile TV client in the devices, rather than on the business-to-business side,” stated Nokia in regards to selling. Nokia’s Mobile Broadcast Solutions employs about 40 people that worked on software and hardward for Nokia mobile TV.

When asked how Wipro could compete with Amazon, Google, Salesforce, etc., the CTO stated that they plan to focus on vertical industries such as retail and health care. Amazon.com, Google, Salesforce etc. seem to be more for general use rather than focusing on specific industries.
