We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the centre 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, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
