諾基亞倒下,但芬蘭更強了!重生 4 關鍵
11 月 19 日,諾基亞股東會正式同意,將把手機部門以 73.5 億美元出售給微軟。看起來,諾基亞的輝煌時代,正式告一段落,但少了諾基亞光環的芬蘭,並沒有迎接寒冬,相反的,她正以意想不到的方式,踏上重生之路。 上週在赫爾辛基落幕的 Slush 創業論壇,就讓科技媒體《Mashable》嗅出芬蘭再生。 5 年前,由手機遊戲憤怒鳥開發商洛菲歐(Rovio)執行長維司特貝卡(Peter Vesterbacka)發起的 Slush 創業論壇,今年特別選在諾基亞 20 多年來的手機研發基地舉行。42 歲的芬蘭總理卡泰寧(Jyrki Katainen)在當天會場上,像極了一位創業家,穿著藍色帽 T,在台上談論:「這裡(論壇)給我們希望。」 《Mashable》觀察,在近年 Slush 論壇上,匯集了來自歐洲各地的創業者,今年,連中國公司阿里巴巴技術長王堅也首次參與,特地上台介紹自家服務。再把鏡頭稍稍拉遠,看國際對芬蘭的關注,別忘了日本電信巨擘軟體銀行,剛在上個月併購芬蘭遊戲開發商 Supercell。 (更多報導請見「亞洲網商搶攻移動世界」) 讓人好奇的是,為什麼芬蘭會在此刻成為各國科技創業家和創投的朝聖地? 《Mashable》整理出以下 4 大關鍵因素,帶你了解芬蘭的新科技力。 關鍵 1:當諾基亞倒下,反而為市場釋出更多優秀人力 15 年前,如果你問一個芬蘭的孩子,長大去哪工作,諾基亞似乎是多數答案。但諾基亞殞落,卻讓當地人重新思考工作選擇。 今年 9 月,諾基亞手機事業部宣布賣給微軟之際,不只執行長走人,也同時裁撤大量員工。一下子,原本被諾基亞獨佔的優秀腦力,開始在市場上活躍起來。「離開的員工,開始建立起自己的事業。很快地,這個國家遍地充滿了上百家新公司。」《Mashable》描述。 在這波創業潮流中,遊戲產業特別蓬勃發展。不論是洛菲歐或 Supercell,遊戲產品持續佔據 App Store 榜單前幾名,這讓芬蘭人重新思考:我們也許能不靠一家獨大企業,就能站在頂端。 … Continue reading
