We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows 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 significance and reflects the value we aim 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 finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
