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

Professor Andreas Jossen, Chair of Electrical Energy Storage Technology at the Technical University of Munich; and Marcus Fiege, Director CoE for sustainable mobility at Capgemini Engineering, discuss how their joint research is advancing sustainable battery design for electric mobility.

They highlight how combining physical modeling with AI accelerates battery development, improves efficiency, and supports environmental goals. It also shows how this research benefits both industry and society through innovation, talent development, and real-world impact.
