Court Denies Majority of Motorola Solutions’ Motion to Dismiss Antitrust Case Filed by Hytera
29.8.2022 17:42:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Hytera Communications (SZSE: 002583), a leading global provider of professional communications technologies and solutions, learned that the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois has allowed Hytera’s antitrust claims against Motorola Solutions Inc. (“Motorola Solutions”) to move forward. On August 24, 2022, the Court issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order ruling that Hytera alleged sufficient facts in eight of nine counts in its complaint against Motorola Solutions’ anticompetitive conduct in the United States. The Court’s order marks a significant milestone of Hytera’s fight against Motorola Solutions’ anticompetitive scheme that prevents manufacturers of two-way radios from competing on the merits.
Hytera is pleased to see progress in this case and is eager to move forward to prove its allegations through discovery.
In its complaint amended on September 11, 2018, Hytera alleged that Motorola Solutions engaged in anticompetitive conduct violating U.S. federal and state antitrust and unfair competition laws. Hytera asserted that Motorola Solutions has – for decades – engaged in a scheme to monopolize the market for Land Mobile Radios (“LMRs”) in the United States. The Complaint further alleges that in recent years, Motorola Solutions has targeted Hytera in its anticompetitive conduct, and that it has succeeded in foreclosing Hytera and other competitors from the market. Specifically, Hytera alleged that Motorola has engaged in a scheme to promote a system of exclusive dealing combined with tying and leveraging, serial sham petitioning, and a coordinated campaign of misinformation about Hytera’s products.
Hytera filed its original complaint in December 2017 in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. The case was later transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The motion decided by the Illinois Court had been pending since April 2019.
Hytera looks forward to proving in Court how Motorola Solutions’ anticompetitive conduct has harmed competition and consumers.

Ardoq Launches AI-First Enterprise Architecture Platform28.5.2026 15:00:00 EEST | Press release
Ardoq, named a 5x Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Architecture Tools, today launched its AI-first enterprise architecture (EA) platform. The release grounds every Ardoq AI output in customers' live architecture data and introduces a new generation of AI agents capable of automating an estimated 40% of routine EA work. Architects today are being asked to defend decisions that generic AI is generating in seconds. Application rationalization choices. ERP transformation roadmaps. AI governance reviews. The questions land on the architect's desk, but the analysis underneath increasingly comes from AI assistants that do not know the architecture. Generic agents reason on whatever document is in front of them, not on the live relationships between applications, dependencies, capabilities, and risks. Ask a generic LLM to trace a five-step dependency chain across the real estate, and accuracy collapses. The answer arrives with confidence. The architect inherits the consequ

Amadeus Redefines Travel Advertising to Help Brands Capture Demand Earlier28.5.2026 14:00:00 EEST | Press release
Amadeus today introduced the Amadeus Travel Advertising Platform at its Advertising Summit in Nice, France. Leveraging Accenture’s agentic framework for campaign execution, the platform outlines a new approach designed to help travel companies make faster, smarter advertising decisions based on where demand is forming — not just where it has already converted. Travel advertising has become increasingly complex, fragmented across channels and often driven by historical performance signals that arrive too late to capture emerging demand. As travelers plan trips across AI chatbots, search, social, metasearch, content platforms and OTAs long before booking, travel brands face rising acquisition costs and growing pressure to prove return on investment. The Amadeus Travel Advertising Platform connects forward-looking travel demand intelligence with advertising planning, activation and AI-supported decision-making. This enables travel brands to drive profitable demand and decisions by investi
