We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most meaningful contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients stay at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, utilizing digital technologies to improve our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
