We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, attract and retain the best people, 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 growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
