We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain 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 spearheading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
