We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains 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 maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
