We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects 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 meaning and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
