We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep 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 shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and embodies the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
