We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives 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 meaning and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain 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 improve access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
