We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates 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 meaning and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
