Hytera radio solution for G20 Summit
High-level security measures were in place for the 10th annual G20 Leaders Summit, including a customised two-way radio communications solution from Hytera.
The mobile radio communications provider said its customised solution included high-level encryption to ensure efficient and private communications for the security staff during the summit, which was held in Antalya, Turkey from 15–16 November.
The summit hosted the G20 heads of government and world leaders including Barack Obama, David Cameron, Angela Merkel, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping.
Local authorities imposed a strict curfew in the south-western Turkish city and further elevated the level of security around the summit’s venue, Regnum Carya Hotel, as a rapid reaction to the terrorist attacks in France, which occurred on 13 November.
Hytera said in such critical moments, professional mobile radios have prominent and irreplaceable advantages over consumer communication technologies, since two-way radios offer versatile features and facilitate intuitive and instant voice communications within teams and across different departments.
The company said its two-way radio communications solutions have been implemented in a number of other international conferences and events.
