We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—fuels everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using 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 prosper.
