We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most meaningful 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 remain at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading 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.
