We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain 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 improve access to our medicines, employing 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 step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
