We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, attract and retain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates 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 importance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating 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 driving the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
