We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking 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 spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
