We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
