We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
