Motorola on Innovation

Our world today is one of constant connectivity across the globe, yet the challenge for innovation remains the same — developing tools and technologies to make people's lives easier, more efficient and more connected.

Across Motorola for the past 80 years, our prominent record of invention and innovation — including equipment that carried the first words spoken from the moon and the world's first handheld cellular phone — continue to change the shape of communications. We develop technologies to eliminate boundaries for people, businesses and public safety agencies, enhancing and advancing how they communicate.

What's new often defines the outcome of innovation, however at Motorola, the continual focus of technology researchers is the pulse of what's next. Innovation at Motorola isn't just about technologies. It's about finding opportunities and developing creative solutions. This ongoing pursuit — unyielding to each market turn or business decision — is what keeps the engine of Motorola's business running. All Motorola products and solutions begin with a core desire to find exciting and convenient new ways to help people communicate. Motorola's investments in innovation and technology research will deliver the products and solutions that power the way we communicate tomorrow.
