We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, employing 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 choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
