What do I need to start up a cellphone company like motorolla and nokia?

i btw do not know much about cellphones. do i have to go to engineering class? are there any specific courses i can take since i already have a degree in business?

Thats a very broad question.

Just off the top of my head.

A product design with a significant enough improvement.

Capitol or investors.

A manufacturing facility or an existing facility willing to retool for your product.

A distribution network.

An advertising strategy and all that entails.

A supply line and warehousing facilities.

Most important a business plan.

I don't know if this was supposed to be serious but as you stated that you have a degree in business I'm sure this is all old hat to you.

how does anyone learn how to design electronics for that matter? is there a school or do i have to work for nokia or motorolla to get experience before building my own?

What's your motivation for wanting to create your own cell phone?

well people in my country (philippines) seem to love it. i don't like cellphones myself but i think my employees would be amazing at this if only they were given the chance. i see lots of stores for example offering repairs, upgrading, and setting them up like cars. i wouldn't be banking on MY abilities at all but i'd like to learn enough of the basics to be able to start up a company. it was a hypothetical question but thanks for answering.:)

Easiest way would be to find a supplier of mobile phone devices (don't bother trying to manufacture them yourself, since it's highly unlikely you can compete in that market) and start badging them and selling them.
