We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
