We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. 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 importance and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating 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 nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
