Hello,

I would first like to thank you for taking the time to respond to this survey.
Academia collaboration with the software industry has been low and disjoint.
The goal of this survey is to help identify and characterize frustrations and challenges that could be utilized for future topics of research in academia.

This survey should take around 5 minutes to complete, and once again I appreciate your time in filling out this form.

If any question is not relevant to your work please leave it blank.
