We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, attract and retain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and demonstrates our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain 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, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
