We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering 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 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 nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
