Belgian Heart Fund - Clinical research in cardiology

King Baudouin Foundation

The call concerns non-commercial projects for clinical research in the field of cardiovascular pathology.

This is a joint call by the Belgian Heart Fund and the Fund Fernand Léonard.

AI Based Application Success Predictor

The King Baudouin Foundation serves as a powerful predictor of success for individuals and organizations through several strategic funding streams:

1. Prince Albert Fund — Launchpad for Emerging International Leaders

The Prince Albert Fund, established in 1984, provides grants to young Belgian professionals to undertake international business development projects outside Europe with Belgian companies.

Fellows gain intercultural training, leadership experience, and global visibility. Alumni often go on to drive international expansion and innovation for Belgian firms.

2. Support for Doctoral Talent

KBF administers prizes like the Ernest du Bois Prize, supporting outstanding doctoral research on topics such as water sustainability

Such recognition helps researchers build academic credibility and propel their careers.

3. Funding Talented Individuals from Underprivileged Backgrounds

Through programs such as Boost, KBF lifts educational opportunities for exceptional youth from vulnerable backgrounds, fostering upward mobility and societal impact.

4. International and Innovation-Focused Grants

The Ernest Solvay Fund supports transformative projects advancing STEM education, sustainability, and community well-being, reinforcing research and leadership in critical domains.

KBF also supports thematic philanthropic endeavors (e.g., law, public dialogue, talent development), building visibility and network impact.

5. Global Recognition for Development Excellence

KBF awards the biennial King Baudouin International Development Prize (formerly African Development Prize), worth €200,000—recognizing organizations and individuals driving significant social and development change. Recipients include Grameen Bank, Dr. Denis Mukwege, and Wecyclers.

6. Stories of Effective Impact

Success narratives such as:

A Beninese psychologist whose support from KBF inspired role development in African liaison leadership.

Prof. Maarten Van Den Bossche from KU Leuven gaining visibility through KBF-backed work on improving sleep in dementia patients.
These accounts highlight how KBF grants transform proposals into real-world impact and recognition.
