DuPont Innovators in Action

I’m just thrilled to announce the launch of our fourth video in the DuPont Innovators in Action series. Meet DuPont Laureate Peter Trefonas whose love for chemistry sparked as a young boy growing up during the transformation of the Industrial Age into the Information Age. Inspired by his father, by grad school Peter discovered he could combine his passions for electronic chemicals to contribute to the ongoing story of integrated circuit manufacturing—how smaller is better, faster and more efficient.

I think you’ll find his talk as motivating as it is inspiring. But what is this series all about? Well, at DuPont, we decided to pull back the curtain on innovation – figuratively and literally. In all, 10 world-class scientists and engineers explore the approaches and behaviors that break the barriers for any innovator. 

Let’s face it, the past year required all of us to get real and rethink our approach to work, innovation and how we connect with one another. As such, I think you’ll find that the talks lift the curtain of DuPont innovation with a personal connection not otherwise possible from a lab or office. 

 As told through the lens of 10 very personal and humble voices, our leading experts highlight the diversity of thought, individuality, curiosity, passion and perseverance that help us deliver on our purpose to empower the world with essential innovations to thrive. 

These exceptional visionaries are realizing solutions for some of the planet’s most pressing challenges. They are world-renown for their individual expertise and professional contributions that have led them to reach the most prestigious levels of DuPont Laureates, Lavoisier, and Pedersen medalists. But today, Peter’s inviting you to join him on a journey of discovery. 

Welcome inside the bold and brilliant minds behind DuPont.
