We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance 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 move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
