We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and reflects 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, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance 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 step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
