We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing 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 step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
