We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a better place. This 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 inventive, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We fulfill 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 advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
