We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness 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 core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using 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 action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
