With over $22 billion in net sales in 2009, $3.2 billion in research and development expenditures, and more than 23,019 global patents, Motorola is one of the premier communications companies. For over 80 years, Motorola has been at the forefront of communications inventions and innovations, such as making the equipment that transmitted the first words from the moon, and developing the world’s first handheld cellular phone.

Founded in 1928, Motorola started in Chicago, Illinois as the Galvin Manufacturing Corporation, manufacturing battery eliminators until the company purchased the patents to the automotive radio and the name Motorola, which it acquired the rights to in 1930, and adopted in 1947, 4 years after the company went public. Starting with the battery eliminator, Motorola products continued to be radio-related, with products such as the first walkie-talkie, cellular infrastructure equipment, and mobile phone manufacturing. After opening a research and development laboratory in Phoenix, Arizona in 1952, Motorola introduced the world’s first commercial high-power germanium-based transistor. Starting in 1958 with Explorer 1, Motorola supplied radio equipment for most NASA space-flights, including the 1969 moon landing.
