Open sourcing something requires extra work.
Open up their whole code base for research purposes?
It's a huge endeavour, because the company would have to convince their stakeholders that this is not harmful for the company competitive advantage. Try to convince your company executives to opensource their code. If it's easy - then share your reasoning, maybe the world will listen, but most likely not, as secrecy is generally perceived as competitive advantage.
