We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for expanding 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 ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by finding 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 leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
