We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to advocate 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.
