We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
