XING is a professional networking platform focused primarily on German-speaking markets (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland). Founded in 2003 in Hamburg, Germany by Lars Hinrichs as openBC, the platform was later rebranded to XING and is now operated by New Work SE, a publicly listed company. XING enables professionals to build business networks, discover job opportunities, participate in industry groups, and manage their professional identities online. The platform also offers services for recruiters, employers, and event organizers, making it a key tool for professional engagement in the DACH region.
With millions of members and over a thousand employees within its parent company, XING has established itself as one of the leading professional networking and recruiting platforms in Europe, particularly in German-speaking markets where it historically competed strongly with LinkedIn. Beyond networking, XING provides HR technology solutions such as job listings, employer branding services, and talent acquisition tools. In recent years, the company has continued to evolve under New Work SE, focusing on digital work culture, modern recruiting solutions, and services that support the future of work.
