We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects 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 strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We live our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving 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 nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
