    The beauty of research is that even in academia or industry, it speaks the same general language and can be translated between both worlds. However, the goal is where research changes direction. In academia research is undergone to further advance humanity and solve problems while in industry, research is used to create a new product and attain revenue based on the funded research project. In industry there is always competition between companies to create solutions that can help solve problems for customers. research in academia in my perspective, i believe that this is where most of the innovation is done, the project is funded to lead new discoveries while in industry it may be too expensive and risky to undertake without knowing the outcome. However, as mentioned before that both platforms of academia and research speaking the same language, this is where both realms can come together and cultivate a new product by working together. I believe there isn’t a specific platform to be better than the other, but in fact that both are ideal and can benifit from each other.
