We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, attract and retain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
