We're in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for building on 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 work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
