Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo

Finnish businessman, CEO of Nokia 2006–2010

In the history of enterprise, Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo as Finnish businessman, CEO of Nokia 2006–2010.

Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo was born at Lavia in 1953. His recorded nationality is Finland. He was educated at University of Helsinki.

Post-war business was mass-market and increasingly multinational, managed by professionals rather than owners.

He worked as chief executive officer and businessperson.

Business reputations are unusually sensitive to the decade in which they were made.

Recognition followed: Knight First Class of the Order of the White Rose of Finland (1996), Commander of the Order of the White Rose of Finland (2004) and Commander First Class of the Order of the Lion of Finland (2024).

That the business was built from Finland shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.
