In its official statement, Nokia has stressed on the qualities of its next president: with a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in electric engineering from the University of the Pacific, Haidamous spent 17 years at Dolby Laboratories “which he helped to grow from a USD 72 million private business into a nearly USD 1 billion thriving public company”. According to the same source, Haidamous’ rich experience will be profitable to Nokia, as well as his “perfect blend of technology savvy, business leadership and innovation experience to head [Nokia’s] cutting-edge technologies business”.

“With Ramzi at the head of the world-class Nokia Technologies team and our continuing investment in advanced research and development, we are well-positioned to drive the innovation and licensing business needed to move us closer to our goal of technology leadership in a world where everyone and everything is connected”, concluded Rajeev Suri, President and Chief Executive Officer of Nokia.

Ramzi Haidamous is another international pride for us all in Lebanon. It saddens me to see how Lebanon cannot take advantage of its own citizens’ competences because it is ruled by incompetent politicians who are preoccupied in destroying an entire country to feed their own ego and interests.
