We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels 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 reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
