We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, attract and retain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. 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 importance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the centre 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, utilizing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading 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 create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
