We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant 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 core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
