We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels 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 significance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance 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 action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
