We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be 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 improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
