We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates 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 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 finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
