We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for building on 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 aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking 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 leading the conversation to push 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 thrive.
