We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for expanding 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 strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
