TomTom schiet ineens omhoog op hoog volume. We duiken direct op het vaak goed ingevoerde TomTom forum en daar vinden we een link naar een bericht op Bloomberg over Nokia.
Bloomberg meldt dat Nokia haar kaartenbusiness HERE wil verkopen voor zo'n 2 miljard euro. Doordat er zo'n bedrag voor HERE wordt betaald doet TomTom het nu ook zo goed of sla ik de plank nu mis?
Nokia Oyj is exploring the sale of its maps business as the Finnish equipment maker focuses on boosting growth at its wireless-network unit and improving its debt rating, according to people familiar with the matter.
Nokia’s maps business, which is known as HERE and competes with rivals such as Google Inc., is attracting interest from companies and private-equity firms, the people said, asking not to be identified because deliberations are private. Bids for the unit, which Nokia valued in its financial report at about 2 billion euros ($2.1 billion), are expected soon, they said.
