ICCBBA Enterprise Grant 2025

ICCBBA is excited to share the latest news regarding the Enterprise Grant Award. In response to the growing need for support in projects related to the transfusion or transplantation of MPHO, we have increased our award to $100,000 USD. This enhancement aims to empower organizations in building safer and more efficient systems, focusing on understanding, quality, and improvement.


This initiative seeks to provide support for projects operating at the local, national or regional level, including resource-constrained settings. The primary goal is to facilitate the creation and advancement of a robust organizational framework, especially in cases where these projects have a significant impact on electronic information management and traceability.

The 2025 ICCBBA Enterprise Grant Overview

We are thrilled to offer a substantial funding opportunity to organizations operating at the local, national, or regional level, with a special focus on resource-constrained settings. This year ICCBBA has also increased the total fund to $100,000 USD. Each applicant can now request up to a maximum award of $50,000 USD, providing even greater support for impactful projects.
