We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows our passion for growing 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 makes certain that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve 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 step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
