Success Sunday

Nokia, a Finnish company, was named after the town of Nokia in the south of Finland and their headquarters are still in Finland - although not in Nokia, strangely enough.

Nokia used to make tyres and wellies and was in serious danger of going bankrupt about 30 years ago.

Then they broke into the mobile phone business and are now the worlds largest providers of mobile phones with 123,000 workers worldwide.

Nokia now makes 14 phones every second.

I'm pretty sure there's a moral about not letting people pigeon hole you there somewhere, huh?
