We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for growing 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 heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing 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 determination we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
