We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep the best people, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—drives everything we do and demonstrates our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and embodies the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the core of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering 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 advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
