We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve 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 importance and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push 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 prosper.
