“…For example, Seppälä (2013) studied the evolution of Nokia's cell phone supply network between 2000 and 2010 identifying how its structure evolved under the effect of five major disruptions related to global, emerging‐market suppliers (e.g., Flextronics' acquisition of Nokia's Finnish suppliers, the introduction of Asian suppliers, and the merger between the Motorola and Nokia Siemens networks). Similarly, Larsen et al (2018, p. 683) documented how Nokia's supply network changed from a set of individual suppliers (pre‐2004) to multi‐technology commodity clusters (where some suppliers were responsible for modules and technologies) and from a number of individual suppliers within Nokia's direct supply network (between 2004 to 2007) to four different, large, vertically‐integrated, multi‐technology suppliers like Foxconn, Jabil, BYD, and Lite‐on. The evolution of Nokia's supply network impacted innovation dynamics because these large, vertically integrated suppliers gained a substantial role in the platform design, software design, and other development‐related aspects of Nokia's products.…”
