We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We innovate every day to make the world a better place. It was Charles Pfizer's founding vision, and it holds true today. Evidence confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the most significant contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and embodies the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose guarantees that patients continue to be at the heart of all we do. We embody our purpose by finding the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to increase access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and leading the conversation to advocate 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 thrive.
