We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, 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 expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing 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 driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
