We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows 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 significance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
