We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, draw and keep the best professionals, 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 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 heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push 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.
