The Hindu Business Line : Motorola to open R&D centres in India, Taiwan

MOTOROLA Inc has announced the opening of two new research and design centres in India and Taiwan on Wednesday. The new centres located in Bangalore and Taipei represents a significant commitment to technology development in Asia and Pacific markets, the company said in a press release.

The new R&D centre in Bangalore will house Motorola's Core Networks Division and Embedded Communications Computing. It will focus on developing new telecom switching technologies and products across CDMA and GSM/UMTS networks, as well as products for a new class of computer — the communications server, the release said.

"This new R&D centre in Bangalore, the second largest facility in India, demonstrates the importance Motorola places on the Indian market. Our goal is to remain at the forefront of developing multi-media solutions that seamlessly combine voice, data, and video," said Mr Simon Leung, Regional President of Motorola Asia Pacific.

Motorola's first R&D facility in India was launched in 1991 in Bangalore. Hyderabad has two additional Motorola R&D sites for Embedded Communications Computing and Global Software Group.

The Taiwan Technology Centre is Motorola's second R&D centre in Taiwan and will operate at the company's Shin Dian plant in Taipei. The centre will focus on developing Motorola's broadband and wireless initiatives, including Ultra Wide Band wireless solutions.
