Abstract

This note discusses the need for mathematics researchers in industry from the standpoint of an industrial researcher, based on my experience in the areas of molecular science simulations in the chemical industry. I will explain why mathematics researchers are vital to industry, as well as prove why working in industry is appealing to mathematics researchers. Mathematicians are the key of success in fundamental and applied researches in industry.
