We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it remains true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, attract and retain the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—drives everything we do and shows 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 reflects the value we aim to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to improve 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 foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
