Repsol YPF is a member of the Pro-CNIC foundation with the objective of contributing to cardiovascular investigation in Spain, converting the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) in a world reference basic and applied cardiovascular research centre.

Repsol YPF and the Fundación Dakar Solidario

The Dakar Solidario Foundation arose out of an initiative by the doctor Xavier Mir after his experience in Dakar 2004, where he participated as a member of the team Repsol KTM. He set up the first personal contacts with hospitals in the region and supplied some medical materials.

To effectively carry out this idea, the Dakar Solidario Foundation was created, whose founding sponsors are Repsol YPF, the Vall d’Hebron Hospital and the Instituto Universitario Dexeus, in Barcelona.
