We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to improve 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.
