We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels 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 strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, utilizing 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 determination we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
