We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients continue to be 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 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 determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
