We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
