We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more innovative, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing 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 foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
