We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains 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 team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for growing 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 makes certain that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
