We are in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations daily to make the world a healthier 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 innovative, attract and retain the best talent, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients remain at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, collaborating 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 spearheading the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
