We're in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a more healthy place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it remains true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more creative, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—powers everything we do and shows our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has importance and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients stay at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, working with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving 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 nurture an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
