We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the core of all we do. We fulfill 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 improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
