We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives 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 reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the core of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using 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 determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
