Three so called "Intellectual Outputs" were elaborated by the European project’s partnership during the project’s period:

First Intellectual Output:
The first output within the project is the "TREND Research Report".
This research report, composed of national reports, was issued jointly by all partner organisations and is supposed to display the current status of migrant and refugee entrepreneurship on the respective national level (Norway, Belgium, Germany, Greece, Ireland). The report collects national data on migration and migration policies as well as on economic structures and labour market requirement and what this implies for refugee and migrant entrepreneurship in terms of obstacles and chances. Good practice examples of encouraging and engaging refugees and people with migration background in self-entrepreneurial actions are gathered and shared.

Second Intellectual Output:
The second output is the "TREND Educational Portal for Entrepreneurs".
The portal is accessible online and free of cost on https://trendproject.eu/, it is adapted for access through diverse digital devices (e.g. smartphones, tablets of PC/Mac). It provides learning modules on topics related to entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial skills and on how to open a business in Europe. It is specifically tailored to third country nationals, e.g. refugees or people with migration background, taking into account differing economic structures, cultural approaches towards business, bureaucratic challenges, etc. Besides the learning modules on the learning portal it is possible to create a network of entrepreneurs using the portal and trainers/mentors/coaches or other professionals or organizations offering guidance or access to finance.

Third Intellectual Output:
The third output is the "TREND Quality Stamp" which leads us to the next chapter introducing the stamp itself and its purpose within the project.

The partners have had transnational meetings in all the partner countries, and shared their experience and network to make this project possible to realize. Below is a presentation of each of the partner organisations.

The main focus of the association has been to serve it's members with activity, advocacy and training for their educational needs in entrepreneurial activity, finance, and be a creative hub mainly for those who are excluded (for various reasons) from the normal labour force. We have been working with refugees/immigrants, persons with health issues, national minorities such as Roma, x-cons, but also other entrepreneurs with a wish to be in a creative environment with learning opportunities. However, since 2017 the main focus has been on the TREND Erasmus+ project., and less on face to face training and activities. We usually have about 50% in each course who have refugee or migrant background. However, we see the mix of newcomers with those who are born in Norway as very positive inclusion perspective, so we work with all. Microfinance Norway has been part of 3 international partnership projects related to entrepreneurial training, financial education and microfinance before.
