We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
