We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
