We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a better 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 maximize the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating 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 leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
