We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to maximize the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important 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 stay at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking 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 leading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
