We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those team members. 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 significance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase 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 foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
