Trend Nova World, a leading global consultancy, is set to fully operate in Belarus by 2025, enhancing its Minsk hub with HR, logistics, real estate, fashion, and EdTech services.
In the dynamic landscape of global consultancy, where agility and local expertise define success, Trend Nova World is poised to elevate its operations in Belarus to new heights. As a premier multi-sector consultancy headquartered in London, Trend Nova World has long recognized the strategic importance of Eastern Europe in its global vision. With its regional hub already established in Minsk, the company is actively planning to achieve full functionality in Belarus by the end of 2025, aligning with its ambitious 2026–2030 Strategic Business Plan. This move not only underscores Trend Nova World’s commitment to bridging Western innovation with Eastern potential but also positions Belarus as a pivotal gateway for services across HR, logistics, real estate, fashion, and tech & education advisory. Drawing on a workforce of over 5,000 diverse experts, including those with deep regional knowledge, Trend Nova World aims to foster sustainable growth, job creation, and compliance in this vibrant market.
The Minsk Hub: A Foundation for Growth
Trend Nova World’s presence in Belarus is anchored at its Minsk regional hub, located at Nezavisimosti Avenue 117A, Office 502. Established as part of the company’s eight strategic global hubs, this location serves as a critical node in its network, ensuring localized expertise across 193 UN member states. Minsk was selected for its strategic positioning at the crossroads of Europe and Eurasia, offering access to skilled talent pools, robust infrastructure, and proximity to key markets in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). Since its inception, the hub has facilitated initial operations, focusing on compliance with local regulations and building partnerships with Belarusian enterprises, international non-governmental organizations (INGOs), and United Nations agencies active in the region.
The company’s license-light model, as detailed in its Company Charter, has been instrumental in navigating Belarus’s regulatory environment. This approach emphasizes agility, leveraging third-party partnerships and AI-driven platforms to minimize bureaucratic hurdles while adhering to international standards such as GDPR equivalents and WTO trade rules. In Belarus, this translates to seamless integration with local tax compliance, data protection laws, and ESG frameworks, ensuring that operations are not only efficient but also ethically sound.
Ambitious Plans for Full Functionality
As outlined in the 2025 Company Profile, Trend Nova World is transitioning its Minsk hub from a supportive role to a fully functional operational center by late 2025. This expansion is part of a broader strategy to deepen engagement in high-growth markets, with Belarus serving as a launchpad for Eastern European initiatives. Key elements of the plan include:
- Infrastructure Enhancement: Investing in state-of-the-art facilities at the Minsk hub to support advanced AI platforms and collaborative workspaces. This will enable real-time consultancy services, from virtual HR recruitment sessions to logistics simulations, catering to clients across Europe and Asia.
- Talent Expansion: Recruiting an additional 500 experts by 2026, with a focus on Belarusian professionals specializing in tech, logistics, and sustainable development. Aligning with the company’s goal to create 100,000 jobs globally by 2030—60% for underrepresented groups—this initiative prioritizes local talent from diverse backgrounds, including women in STEM and ethnic minorities, to drive inclusive growth.
- Service Diversification: Rolling out full-spectrum services tailored to Belarus’s economic landscape. In HR, this means addressing the demand for skilled labor in the IT sector; in logistics, optimizing supply chains amid regional trade dynamics; in real estate, advising on sustainable urban development; in fashion, promoting eco-friendly designs for export markets; and in tech & education, partnering with local universities for upskilling programs. These services will leverage the $605 billion EdTech market’s 15.4% CAGR and the $13.7 trillion logistics sector’s digital transformation.
- Partnerships with INGOs and UN Agencies: Strengthening collaborations to support UN SDGs in Belarus and neighboring regions. For instance, Trend Nova World plans to assist INGOs in humanitarian logistics for refugee support and environmental projects, drawing on its expertise in AI-driven solutions to enhance efficiency and reduce costs by 25%.
The financial blueprint supports this vision, with a portion of the $85 million investment (2026–2030) allocated to Eastern European expansion. Projected revenue contributions from the Minsk hub are expected to bolster the company’s trajectory toward $500 million by 2030, starting with targeted growth in 2026.
Strategic Advantages and Market Alignment
Belarus’s evolving economy, characterized by a strong IT sector, manufacturing base, and strategic location within the Eurasian Economic Union, aligns perfectly with Trend Nova World’s multi-sector approach. The country’s push toward digitalization and sustainability mirrors global trends, such as the 5.8% CAGR in logistics and 4.9% in real estate. By becoming fully functional in Minsk, Trend Nova World can capitalize on these opportunities, offering clients cost efficiencies of 15–30% through scalable solutions.
Moreover, the expansion emphasizes social impact. In line with commitments to create jobs in emerging markets, the Minsk hub will prioritize training programs for 1,000 beneficiaries by 2027, focusing on underrepresented groups in tech and logistics. Sustainability remains central, with plans to implement eco-friendly practices that contribute to a 25% global carbon footprint reduction by 2030, including green logistics initiatives in Belarus.
Challenges and Compliance Assurance
While the path to full functionality is promising, Trend Nova World acknowledges potential challenges, such as geopolitical tensions and regulatory shifts. The company’s robust compliance framework—adhering to EU-adjacent standards and UN ESG guidelines—mitigates these risks. Experts with backgrounds in international relations and regional policy will ensure operations remain resilient and adaptive.
A Future of Collaboration and Impact
Trend Nova World’s plans for full functionality in Belarus represent more than operational expansion; they embody a commitment to fostering global interconnectedness. By harnessing the expertise of its diverse professionals and innovative platforms, the company is set to transform Minsk into a hub of excellence, benefiting local economies, INGOs, UN agencies, and international businesses alike.
