But while it may seem that smartphones are reaching their peak of innovation, HMD Global, a Finnish startup that has entered the global smartphone market with the next generation of Nokia phones running Android, feels there is still plenty of room for growth and ingenuity. Set up in December 2016, HMD Global bills itself as a collective of passionate and experienced people who believe that technology can enhance and improve the lives of billions of people around the world.
