Hytera CEO and Top Management visit Sepura in Europe to Discuss Market Opportunities
After the announcement that Hytera's acquisition of the Sepura Group had closed, Hytera's founder, chairman and CEO Qingzhou Chen and the senior leadership team travelled to the U.K., Spain and Germany for meetings with Sepura Group leadership.
The focus of this visit was the convergence of the global Sepura Group with the global Hytera family. Specifically, the team discussed market opportunities for Sepura, Teltronic, Hytera U.K. and Hytera Mobilfunk (HMF) in Europe.
Hytera held a series of leadership team meetings in Sepura's Cambridge office, at Teltronic in Zaragoza, and at HMF’s office in Bad Münder. The highlights of the trip were a series of town halls with the entire Sepura team—joined by local Hytera teams—first in Cambridge on June 1, in Zaragoza the next day, and in Bad Münder on June 6.
During the Cambridge session, Hytera's Vice President of R&D, Yelin Jiang described Hytera's growth and its successes in PMR. After showing a video, Hytera: Expect the Unexpected, Yelin introduced Hytera's markets, growth, product range, and future plans. He described the pace of growth at Hytera, due to its investment in R&D and the talent and energy of its people.
Globally, Yelin noted, Hytera is the fastest-growing PMR solutions provider, and digital solutions are now at the core of our service offerings. More than half of Hytera's revenue comes from outside China; 55% comes from the public safety market.
Hytera's emphasis on market-leading solutions is supported by massive investment in R&D, with a highly educated, ambitious workforce and a best-in-class smart manufacturing 4.0 facility. Yelin then noted Hytera's sales targets: to continue to grow, Hytera must provide end-to-end solutions that reflect the ongoing convergence of narrowband and broadband technologies. In 2020, Hytera will expand to a new R&D facility in Shenzhen with space for 10,000 employees.
