Founded in 1995 as a private media outlet in Azerbaijan, Trend News Agency is a news provider in the Caucasus, Caspian region and the Central Asia. Ilgar Huseynov is the director general of the agency.

Trend News Agency produces news in five languages: Azerbaijani, English, Russian, Turkish and Persian. The services provide news of countries and regions by placing more focus on ongoing events in languages appropriate to the specific audiences.
