DUBAI, January 17, 2017

Clarivate Analytics recently honoured DuPont, a science-based products and services company, with the ‘2016 Top Global Innovator’ for the sixth consecutive year.

Clarivate Analytics accelerates the pace of innovation by providing trusted insights and analytics to customers around the world, enabling them to discover, protect and commercialize new ideas, faster.

The programme, based on proprietary data, recognises the most innovative corporations and institutions in the world that shape the future through the development and commercialisation of breakthrough technologies.

The Clarivate Analytics 2016 Top100 Global Innovators programme, formerly the Intellectual Property & Science business of Thomson Reuters is now in its sixth year.

The programme 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 Clarivate Analytics, the firms on the list generated more than $4 trillion revenue in 2015 and spent more than $227 billion on research and development. On average, the 2016 Top 100 Global Innovators invest 9.1 per cent more in R&D than those in the S&P 100.

The Clarivate Analytics 2016 Top 100 Global Innovator methodology is based on patent volume, patent-grant success rates, global reach and invention influence.

Douglas Muzyka, senior vice president and chief science and technology officer, DuPont, said: “Each and every day, our scientists and engineers translate discoveries to valuable new products and technologies for our customers.”

“We are honoured to be included on the Top 100 Global Innovator list, as it recognises the positive impact that our innovations are having – enabling a better, safer, and healthier life for people everywhere,” he added.
