We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase 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 decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
