We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels 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 significance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
