We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to push 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.
