We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
