We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects 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 work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
