We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a healthier place. It 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 innovative, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform 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 finding the best science in the world, working 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 leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
