We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows 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 aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve 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 step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
