We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance 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 step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
