DuPont Named 2015 Thomson Reuters Top 100 Global Innovator<\/b><\/p>\n

DuPont Recognized as One of the World\u2019s Most Innovative Companies for Fifth Consecutive Year<\/i><\/p>\n

WILMINGTON, Del., Nov. 13, 2015 \u2013 Thomson Reuters has named DuPont a 2015 Top Global Innovator, marking the fifth consecutive year the company has been named to the prestigious list. The program honors corporations and institutions around the world that are at the heart of innovation \u2013 creating new technologies and bringing them to life through commercialization.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuPont\u2019s science-based innovation creates real-world solutions, drives growth for the company and its shareholders and solves some of the world\u2019s greatest challenges,\u201d said Senior Vice President and Chief Science & Technology Officer Douglas Muzyka<\/span><\/a>. \u201cWe are honored to be included on the Top 100 Global Innovator list, as it recognizes the impact that our innovations are having on the global marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among DuPont\u2019s innovations are advanced enzymes and sustainable biomass supply chain for one of the world\u2019s first cellulosic ethanol plants in Nevada, Iowa, DuPont\u2122 Corian\u00ae Charging Surface providing wireless charging for phones and tablets, new thin and stretchable conductive materials for wearable electronics, DuPont\u2122 Kevlar\u00ae advanced ballistic protection and consumer products, Tyvek\u00ae HomeWrap\u00ae and medical packaging, Nomex\u00ae thermal protection, Optimum\u00ae AcreMax\u00ae insect protection products, Sorona\u00ae renewably sourced fibers, Rynaxypyr\u00ae insect control, award-winning DuPont\u2122 Solamet\u00ae photovoltaic metallization pastes that help boost the power output of solar panels and DuPont\u2122 Danisco\u00ae HOWARU\u00ae Cardio premium probiotic, which has been shown to significantly improve total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels. In 2014, DuPont recorded about $9 billion in sales from new products and applications launched between 2011 and 2014. The same year, DuPont scientists and engineers published some 300 articles in scientific journals, and DuPont had more than 3000 technology agreements with companies and universities.<\/p>\n

The Thomson Reuters 2015 Top100 Global Innovators program, now in its fifth year, has served as a trustworthy investment resource and a testament to increased R&D funding, global patent filing and new market development, resulting in greater revenue and enhanced regional economic activity. According to Thomson Reuters, together the Top 100 Global Innovators generated more than $429 trillion in revenue and invested more than $20 trillion in R&D (local currency) in 2014. The 2015 Thomson Reuters Top 100 Global Innovators outperformed the MSCI World Index in revenue by 6.01 percentage points, employment by 4.09 percentage points, and market-cap-weighted R&D spending by 1.86 percentage points.<\/p>\n

The Thomson Reuters 2015 Top 100 Global Innovator methodology is based on four principle criteria: overall patent volume, patent application-to-grant success rate, global reach of the portfolio, and patent influence as evidenced by citations. The full report is available at http:\/\/www.stateofinnovation.com<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

DuPont (NYSE: DD) has been bringing world-class science and engineering to the global marketplace in the form of innovative products, materials, and services since 1802. The company believes that by collaborating with customers, governments, NGOs, and thought leaders we can help find solutions to such global challenges as providing enough healthy food for people everywhere, decreasing dependence on fossil fuels, and protecting life and the environment.
