Motorola
Public Statements Risk
Motorola CEO Greg Brown served on President George W. Bush's National Security Telecommunications Advisory committee, where he made policy recommendations regarding communications and network services. He also served on President Barack Obama's Management Advisory Board. The company does not assume stances on political debates. Their site features sections on both DEI and ESG, accessible from the header menu.

Political Contributions Risk
Motorola contributes largely to Red causes, and mostly through its PAC. Contribution level is very high and on the higher end of spectrum when benchmarked to the Information Technology Sector. Stronger partisanship is typical of the IT sector but tends to lean Democratic, making Motorola atypical. Motorola contributes to controversial political figures like Mitch McConnell and Steve Scalise. The risk is elevated by both contribution size and partisanship.

Political Dichotomy Risk
Motorola has a diverse customer base from its widely-demanded products and primarily operates with B2C model. Combined with the company's high contribution level, skewed in favor of Republicans, Motorola tends to donate to semi-controversial Republican figures. However, the company also avoids controversial media campaigns that could provoke backlash. The sales strategy is largely centered on price, indicating consumers' lacking in disposable income to boycott for substitutes. But, their donation profile makes them stand out in the Blue sea of the tech world, elevating the risk level.

Associational Risk
The company has contributed to Mitch McConnell and Steve Scalise. They have also received press over contributions to Governor DeSantis. Research revealed no other controversial associations on social media or other platforms.

Brand Visibility Risk
Motorola is a consumer electronics brand, selling based on features and price, though the sector has somewhat high brand loyalty. The company is primarily B2C, with good awareness but low market share, creating a moderate risk level.
