We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
