We are in constant 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 still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers 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 aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing 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 spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
