We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
