We are in constant pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more innovative, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to maximize the power of those people. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that transform patients' lives—fuels everything we do and shows our passion for growing our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has meaning and represents the value we work to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients continue to be at the centre of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines, employing digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to push for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every determination we make, and every step we take is done with the patient in mind—and to create an environment where breakthroughs can prosper.
