We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels 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 strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the core 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, using digital technologies to enhance 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 create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
