We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, attract and retain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign 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.
