Academic research traditionally focuses on intellectual curiosity and the search for the truth, while corporate research aims to help companies build and maintain competitive advantages and deliver profit. So how can these two worlds come together for mutual benefits?

Toktam Mahmoodi, Professor of Communications Engineering and Director of the Centre for Telecommunications Research at King’s College London, and Shamik Mishra, Vice President & Chief Technology Officer for Connectivity at Capgemini Engineering, discuss the research collaboration established between King’s College London and Capgemini Engineering on 6G, connectivity, and industrial networks.
