We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to advocate 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 prosper.
