We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—fuels 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 significance and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing 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 decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
