We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation every day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and embodies the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the heart 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 leading 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 thrive.
