We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, attract and retain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
