We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows 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 embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
