We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—fuels 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 meaning and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, employing 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 action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
