We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We fulfill 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 advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
