We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more innovative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, utilizing 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 move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
