We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful 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 stay at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
