We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using 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.
