We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels 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 meaning and embodies the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
