We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more innovative, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and demonstrates our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
