We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
