We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve 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 move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
