Nokia finally getting into mobile health

This is something we talked about a lot during my time there, but it never really took off. India is a natural place for them to start as they had a market share in excess of 75%, but as Android takes off there, it may be getting a bit late for them to develop a natural social network through their user base. 

Nokia Announced Mobile Health Initiative:

New Delhi: Nokia India, in association with Arogya World, has announced a diabetes prevention mobile health initiative in India. With this Nokia aims to reach one million Nokia Life Tools consumers in rural and urban India in the next two years through text messages on diabetes awareness and prevention available in multiple languages. This initiative will use mobile phones as a vehicle to combat chronic non-communicable diseases like diabetes.

Congratulations to NOKIA! They are doing a fantastic job by taking initiative in mobile health.NOKIA company have took initiative in many things before and succeeded each time.So I have slight doubt in my mind that they will be successful this time as well.So really a good news specially for diabetes patients.
