About

We're in tireless pursuit of breakthroughs that improve patients' lives. We create innovations each day to make the world a more healthy place. This was Charles Pfizer's initial vision, and it holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies achieve more, are more creative, draw and keep the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those individuals. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that improve patients' lives—fuels everything we do and demonstrates 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 strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose makes certain that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and driving the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every choice we make, and every move we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
