We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering 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 spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
