We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to harness 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 significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
