We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate daily 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 perform better, are more creative, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
