We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain 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 increase access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving 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 foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
