We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push 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.
