We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers 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 reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
