We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
