We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers 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 significance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading 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 foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
