We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading 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 nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
