We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering 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 driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
