We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and demonstrates 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 importance and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing 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 choice we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
