We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
