We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and embodies the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push 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 prosper.
