We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—fuels everything we do and demonstrates our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important 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 continue to be at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
