We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for building on 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 work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
