About Cicp Foundation
Cicp Foundation Inc’s clearest pattern is its long-running support for Indiana’s AnalytixIN work, with large grants tied to life sciences research, health data, manufacturing assets, and data infrastructure. The foundation has paired that research agenda with workforce and apprenticeship funding, including support for modern and youth apprenticeship programs in Indianapolis and projects that connect students to early-career pathways. Another throughline is ecosystem-building: it has backed university research, industry collaboration, and regional economic opportunity studies meant to inform Indiana’s advanced industries. Recent grants also show attention to agbioscience innovation and creative-economy research, suggesting a portfolio aimed at statewide competitiveness rather than a single program area. The recipient list includes Indiana University, Purdue University, University of Notre Dame Du Lac, and Indiana Health Information Exchange Inc, alongside Indiana-based intermediaries that translate research into practice. Its grantmaking reflects an institutional role in funding buildout, research, and convening around the state’s economic development agenda.
What Cicp Foundation Funds
Life sciences and data assets are a major thread in the foundation’s work. In 2024, it gave $6,651,866 to Indiana University to advance the AnalytixIN strategic initiative and conduct Indiana’s life sciences industry research, and it also awarded $1,307,060 in 2025 to Indiana Health Information Exchange Inc to advance the development of the AnalytixIN strategic initiative health data. The foundation has also funded manufacturing-related infrastructure, including $1,500,000 in 2023 to Indiana Economic Development Corporation for the NextLevel Smart Manufacturing Studio. Workforce development appears in both youth and adult pathways: Indianapolis Private Industry Council Inc dba EmployIndy received $1,066,818 in 2025 to advance Ascend Indiana’s modern and youth apprenticeship programs. On the agbioscience side, it awarded $352,250 in 2025 to Research Triangle Institute Inc for research and development related to agbioscience ecosystem growth in Indiana.
How Cicp Foundation Gives
Typical grants cluster around a median of $50,000, with the 25th percentile at $16,995 and the 75th percentile at $147,700. The recent record shows both smaller research-support grants and large buildout or initiative awards, including multi-hundred-thousand-dollar investments and several seven-figure grants. Recipients reappear across multiple years, especially Purdue University, Indiana University, The Brookings Institution, and Indianapolis Private Industry Council Inc dba EmployIndy, which suggests repeated project support rather than one-off giving. Cicp Foundation Inc is a regular funder, not a DAF, and the grants shown include reimbursement language in some cases, indicating project-restricted support tied to specific expenses or initiatives.
