Or do it like Germany does:

* Fundamental groundbreaking science research is done in research institutes without pressure to teach or get industry grants, with 100% state funding - the Max Planck institutes

* Industry-relevant research runs in entirely separate teams, either in applied-science institutes - the Fraunhofer Institutes - or universities, with mixed public and private grant funding

Presto, no more pressure for industry sponsors of blue-sky fundamental research.
