We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We drive innovation each day to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, draw and keep the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign 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 prosper.
