To me, both types of research are important, but my personal interest is to see results right away. I had previous experience doing research in the academic field, and even though I liked it, sometimes I found myself to be stressed about results taking a long time, or that they did not take me a meaningful conclusion. It is necessary to keep both types of research going on, but for me, I would like to stay in the industry, as I like to keep focus and like to have specific timelines.
