The Nona Gaprindashvili Trophy is an award given to the country with the best combined score in the open and women's sections at the Chess Olympiad. Named after the legendary Georgian chess player Nona Gaprindashvili, the fifth Women's World Champion and the first woman to be awarded the title of Grandmaster, this trophy was established by FIDE in 1997. All the winning countries are engraved on the trophy, and the winning team holds it until the next Olympiad. The latest winner is India, which won it in both 2022 and 2024.
