We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant 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 ensures 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 enhance 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 create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
