Trendhim Scholarship
The €2,000 Trendhim Talent Scholarship was created to empower and support students that have a passion for business, design, marketing and IT and would like to pursue a career in any of the below fields or start their own business.
We're no longer running this project.
We have completed a total of 3-4 rounds of scholarships. See our other CSR-projects here: https://www.trendhim.co.uk/csr
Do you dream of working in marketing, fashion, sales, IT, trade, or management? Then we'd like to help you. We've created the Trendhim Scholarship, and so each year we support one or more students with the amount of €2,000.

Have a look at earlier year's winners
In 2017 we created and launched the Trendhim Scholarship with the goal of helping students reach their goals and see their dreams come true.
The interest was high and very competitive. Our original plan was to select only one winner, but we found it difficult with over 1,000 incredibly qualified applicants.
In the end, we decided to reward two qualified students. In 2018 it was Emma from Canada and Tania from France.
In 2019 the winners are:
- Mike from the Netherlands.
- Irina from Russia.
Emma, 2018 winner
Tania, 2018 winner
Mike, 2019 winner
Irina, 2019 winner
**More on our winners… **
Emma from Canada
As a current Retail Management Consultant with Accenture, my passion is at the intersection of marketing strategy and IT for the retail industry. I have worked on e-commerce strategy projects for clients in the grocery and public transportation industry, inclusive of comprehensive mobile applications, ship-to-locker strategies and digital ticketing solutions. I also completed an Accenture white-paper on the future of e-commerce and supply chain in Canadian markets. – Emma
Her dream is to work as Marketing Manager for Amazon fashion in the UK. We hope she will consider Trendhim as we are passionate about fashion and the future of e-commerce… plus, we think we’re pretty fun to work with.
**Tania from France **
Tania amazed us with her talent and is currently an architect dreaming of a career in accessory design. She will soon begin her Master’s degree at the Polidesign school in Milan.
I want to work in fashion and craft so I can design and produce my own items that I want to sell via e-commerce.
The Polidesign school in Milan is a dream for me, it is the perfect combination of Italian know-how and the use of new technologies. Polidesign is an international school, so I will meet students from all over the world which will open my mind. At the end of the year I will be able to produce my own accessories and make them accessible through e-commerce.
I think travel is the key to inspiration, creativity and openness. I have thus observed several know-how (manufacture of fabric, color, wood) which inspires me and makes me want to work in this field. – Tania
