We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding 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 work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering 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 spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
