We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—fuels everything we do and demonstrates our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and embodies the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We live 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 improve 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 flourish.
