We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance 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 action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
