We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates 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 strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve 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 move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
