We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
