Haidamus joined Nokia in 2014, around the same time the company sold its mobile phone business to Microsoft. For the past year and a half, he's been trying to work out the company's post-phone strategy. Today the company launched a $60,000 virtual reality camera, but last week Haidamus told Fortune he had an eye on digital health.
"We’re also looking at another area where we have not launched any products - digital health," Haidamus said at the very end of the interview. "Digital health is something that comes very natural to Nokia. It’s a brand that’s known for a solid, reliable brand. A lot of research is happening right now in the field of digital health."
