We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that transform patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies deliver better results, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best people, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and demonstrates our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance 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 fulfill our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
