We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important 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 heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
