We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations every day to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more inventive, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—drives everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the core of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to push 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.
