1 case as defendant.
I'll research this entity before writing the profile.
Let me verify the litigation context and Nokia's size.
Nokia Solutions and Networks Oy (Finnish Business ID 2058430-6; auxiliary name "NSN Finland") is a Finnish limited company registered 13 September 2006, headquartered at Karakaari 7, Espoo, Finland. It is a 100%-owned subsidiary of Nokia Corporation (NYSE: NOK / Nasdaq Helsinki: NOKIA) and is listed among Nokia's principal group companies in its Form 20-F. It was formed as Nokia Siemens Networks Oy — originally the Nokia–Siemens joint venture — and renamed Nokia Solutions and Networks Oy in August 2013 after Nokia bought out Siemens' stake; the Nokia Networks brand replaced the NSN name in 2014. It files no separate public accounts; parent Nokia reported roughly €19.2bn revenue and an average of about 78,400 employees for 2024.
Operations. NSN is the group's mobile broadband and telecom network infrastructure operating entity, covering radio access network (RAN) and microwave transport products, IP routing and optical transport, network management and SDN/orchestration software, plus deployment, operations and support services sold to communications service providers and enterprises. Nokia's group structure now comprises Network Infrastructure, Mobile Networks, Cloud and Network Services, and Nokia Technologies.
Litigation posture. Operating company defending. Across tracked U.S. litigation it appears as defendant only (0 plaintiff, 1 defendant), consistent with a practicing vendor being targeted rather than a patent monetizer. The sole tracked suit sits in the plaintiff-friendly Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, before Judge Rodney Gilstrap.
Notable case. K.Mizra LLC v. Nokia Corporation, Nokia of America Corporation and Nokia Solutions and Networks Oy (2:24-cv-00974, E.D. Tex., filed 25 Nov 2024). Plaintiff K.Mizra is a Delaware-formed patent-licensing entity widely characterized as an NPE/PAE that acquires portfolios (former Rambus, IBM, Sharp, Panasonic and TNO assets) and asserts them. The complaint pleads willful infringement of five patents and targets Nokia service routers and SR OS (7750 SR, 7450 ESS, BGP VPLS) plus network-operations software (Network Services Platform, Digital Operations Center, Orchestration Center, Services Director). Judge Gilstrap issued a claim construction order on 14 April 2026.
K.Mizra filed this action against Nokia entities in the Eastern District of Texas on November 25, 2024, asserting U.S. 9,485,176, U.S. 10,735,320, U.S. 9,264,354, U.S. 9,749,249, and U.S. 8,018,880. The case is pending; Nokia served preliminary invalidity contentions, claim construction proceeded, and trial was indicated around September 2026 with no judgment identified.
