We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
