We're 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 original vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives 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 significance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain 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 enhance access to our medicines, employing 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 nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
