We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
