We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant 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 makes certain that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
