Company patents

Nokia Shanghai Bell Co., Ltd.

Nokia Shanghai Bell Co., Ltd.'s patent strategy shows a surprising shift away from its dominant Antennas category, which constitutes 65.8% of its portfolio but experienced a significant decline of -66.7% in 2025, despite a recent uptick of +50.0% so far in 2026. This indicates a potential re-evaluation of core communication hardware, alongside a broader decline across most other categories, with Wireless Networks seeing a -100.0% decline so far in 2026, suggesting a consolidation or redirection of R&D efforts.
