We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects 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 embodies the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
