We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for expanding 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 makes certain that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push 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.
