Telecommunications company Motorola Solutions has announced it is to create 200 jobs in Cork with the establishment of a new research and development centre.

The jobs based at the centre, which will be located in Cork city centre, will focus on designing software for Motorola’s land mobile radio (LMR) portfolio, with plans for expansion across other technologies in the future.

Minister for Enterprise Peter Burke said the company’s choice of Cork is fantastic news, noting regional investment is a priority for the Government.
