We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, attract and retain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. 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 significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving 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 foster an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
