We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate 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 intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects 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 strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using 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 foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
