We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives 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 importance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
