We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a healthier place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing 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 determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
