We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay 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 improve access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
