New inventions help us develop the latest mobile technologies.

This portal is NOT for:

• Customer suggestions about how we can improve our existing products, battery life and so on.
• Feedback on our current products or services.
• Candidates looking for a job at Nokia. Instead visit: http://www.nokia.com/en_int/about-us/careers.
• Business proposals, dealerships and marketing offers.

We’re always looking for innovative ideas that will help us grow and diversify our patent portfolio. Invent With Nokia helps us source these ideas from external inventors. More specifically, it gives us access to inventions that will help us develop new mobility-enabling technologies and solutions for our customers. Some of these inventions are covered by patents, patent applications or registered designs. Almost all of them are in the following areas:

• Wireless Technologies (standards, implementation, IoT, 5G & 6G radio, WiFi, core network)
• Devices & Services (smartphones, wearables, UI/UX, security, IoT, AI/ML, automotive etc.)
• Emerging Technologies (extended reality, metaverse/mirrorworld, quantum computers, etc.)
• Multimedia (standards, implementation, voice/audio, video, etc.)
• IP & Optical Networks
• Fixed & Mobile Networks

No. Invent With Nokia is not the right place to enter business ideas, dealership offers, marketing proposals, feedback, job requests or complaints.

Yes, you can submit a patent you’ve already filed. But you need to provide us with the patent’s complete details. We’ll need to see the patent application number as well as the country in which the patent application was filed, published or issued. These details will help in accessing and evaluating the potential of your invention as per our business requirements.

If you’ve filed a patent but it isn’t in the public domain yet, please share a description of your patent application so we can assess it. If you don’t want to reveal details of your invention in these circumstances, we recommend waiting to submit your patent application until it is published.

No. We expect all inventors to not have shared their ideas publicly before submitting to us, neither having already applied for IP protection (filing a patent application at a patent office). If an invention has been published online, in a magazine, as a research paper or in some other public format, that will prevent global protection of the patent. At Nokia, we always look at filing patents globally. So it’s extremely rare that we file patent applications after an invention has been published.

What’s more, we don’t accept web links as submissions. Inventions must be described as text.
