Thank you for the excellent question. As you know, Nokia is an innovation leader. We continuously focus on our customers' (CSPs and Enterprises) and society's needs (ESG). As an example, Nokia is leading in 5G technology and already contributing immensely towards 6G development. Our Bell Labs and R&D actively lead on various forums, standardization bodies, and patents. Customers trust us to take them ahead in their network evolution.
In parallel, we have a well-defined, robust, milestone-wise quality process during a product development cycle. It can never be rushed or compromised. The software and hardware go through various stages of testing, pilot, limited introduction and then to commercial release (General availability globally). The product roadmap is well aligned with the respective solution roadmaps to ensure quality and consistency leading to timely release to meet customer requirements. I hope this clarifies. All the best.
