We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects 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 significance 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 fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to enhance 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 nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
