We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform 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. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and reflects the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, using 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 decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
