We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using 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 create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
