We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to campaign 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 thrive.
