No More Siemens Cell Phones

Francis Francis Turner September 29th, 2006


BenQ, the Taiwanese company that bought Siemens’ cell phone division for €250 million has decided that there is no point in continuing in Germany. It’s German subsidiary will be declaring bankruptcy and pulling the plug pronto.

I wonder what will happen to other European players such as Sagem (France) which have smiliarly small market share and (presumably) high labour costs.
