We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
