We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, attract and retain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, utilizing 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 decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
