Applied research carried out in close collaboration with industry brings many benefits but is certainly not challenge free. Researchers who study industrial practice and practitioners oftentimes have to trade important qualities and make difficult compromises. Many situations arise from the necessity to keep the confidentiality agreements, deliver according to plans or simply because of thenecessity to publish (“rules of the academic game”). At the end, we make compromises to academic integrity, research fairness,transparency, reliability,generalisability, orrelevance.In this talk, you will hear about the typical challenges and lessons learned from applied research with industry from prof. Darja Smite.
