We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels 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 importance and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using 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 action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
