We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant 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 makes certain that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using 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 determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
