We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain 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 increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
