We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows 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 embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating 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 leading 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 nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
