We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing 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 create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
