We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a better place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it holds true today. Research confirms what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, attract and retain the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We embody our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world, collaborating 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 spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
