We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful 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 makes certain that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working 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 leading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
