We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it still holds true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating 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 driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
