We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve 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 meaning and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve 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 determination we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
