Finnish telecom gear maker Nokia has signed an agreement with Aurelius to sell its Enterprise Campus Edge (ECE) business. <\/p>\n
The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2027, subject to customary closing conditions, according to a statement on Tuesday. As a standalone business under Aurelius’s ownership, ECE is expected to benefit from greater independence and a dedicated strategic focus.<\/p>\n
This move aims to help ECE drive innovation, respond quickly to customer needs, and accelerate the digitalisation and transformation of industrial operations. ECE is a recognised industry leader in private wireless, serving nearly 900 customers worldwide across various sectors. <\/p>\n
Its portfolio includes industrial devices, on-premises operational technology (OT) edge and micro-edge solutions, and software applications for industrial AI-powered use cases. ECE’s digitalisation platform helps organisations improve operational performance, increase automation, and enhance sustainability and worker safety. <\/p>\n
This is achieved by connecting assets and processing OT data on premises for greater data security and sovereignty. The planned transaction supports Nokia’s strategy to sharpen its portfolio and direct capital and resources to areas creating long-term value. <\/p>\n
It also provides ECE with a strong foundation for its next growth phase as a standalone business. ECE employees are expected to transfer with the business at closing, in accordance with applicable local laws and processes. <\/p>\n
