We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives 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 importance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients stay at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
