We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving 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.
