There is a no-funding land that is needed to advance society. Between basic scientific research and advanced low probability engineering research no for-profit corporation is willing to find - so it’s mostly the domain of the government allocating grants to universities and labs.

That requires students to educate, and money to pay for the whole affair.

Surely that should be left to the professors, and not the PR department?

Unless the PR department was educating students.

They could probably do institutional PR off student projects since MIT already gets top talent
