We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering 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 push 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 thrive.
