Corteva Enterprise Award
(Redirected from DuPont Team Enterprise Award)
The Corteva Enterprise Award (known as the DuPont Team Enterprise Award until 2019) is awarded at each national tournament to the highest-ranked team outside of the top ten which did not attend the national tournament in the previous year. It was first established for the 2014 National Tournament, and is named for Corteva Agriscience, a spin-off of the DuPont Company, a longtime sponsor of Science Olympiad. Some states, such as New York, have similar awards as this at their state tournament. The award was not given in 2021 or 2022, but it returned for the 2023 National Tournament held at Wichita State University.
