    Google!

    The Nokia logo was designed in 1987 by internal designer Lars Hedman and modified in 2005 by an internal designer.

    The colour is blue (Pantone 293). The additional colour is green (Pantone 368).

    The color listed on the Nokia website for their corporate standards is PMS 293.

    I saw this info for the Kawasaki Green, but I’m not sure exactly how accurate it is. PMS 369

    Their Corporate Standards have a green listed as PMS Kawasaki Lime Green. Strange, but they don’t give a number. When I open it in Illustrator though, it gives me PMS 368 U.

    Looks like the Nokia Green is close to Kwaka then.

    369 on my swatch has a smidge of black in the mix compared to 368.
    369 Looks more Kawazaki to me.

    Yeah, Here’s a site that has a the 369 listed. It’s for leather though, so I opted with the corporate standard number. Although Tim is probably right on which one is closer to the true color you want.
