We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be 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 spearheading 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 foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
