XING

XING is a prominent online professional networking and job search platform headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, that connects over 22 million members primarily in German-speaking countries for building business contacts, discovering career opportunities, and accessing professional resources.^[1] Founded in 2003 as Open Business Club (OpenBC) and rebranded to XING in 2006, it was the first Web 2.0 company to go public with an IPO that year, marking a milestone in digital professional services.^[2] Operated by New Work SE (a subsidiary of Burda Digital SE since its privatization in 2024)—following a corporate rebranding from XING SE in 2019—the platform emphasizes practical tools for users and employers alike, including AI-powered job matching, over 1 million active job listings with filters for remote and flexible roles, and features for company reviews and salary insights.^[1]^[3]^[4] Available in 16 languages and supported by a mobile app, XING facilitates targeted recruiting solutions such as talent sourcing and application management, positioning itself as an essential tool in the DACH region's (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) labor market.^[1]^[5] Its growth has been driven by a focus on user-centric innovation, including recent campaigns launched in 2025 to highlight transparent and efficient job hunting.^[1]

History

Founding and early years

XING was founded in August 2003 as Open Business Club AG (OpenBC) by entrepreneur Lars Hinrichs in Hamburg, Germany.^[6] The company aimed to create a digital platform for business professionals to connect and share opportunities, drawing inspiration from emerging social networking concepts adapted for professional use.^[7] The platform officially launched to the public on November 1, 2003, initially targeting German business users with features for profile creation, contact management, and professional discussions.^[6] An English version followed shortly after to broaden accessibility, though the core focus remained on fostering networks among executives and entrepreneurs in German-speaking regions.^[6] Early development emphasized user privacy and an ad-free environment, which helped build trust and differentiate OpenBC from general social sites.^[8] In its initial years, OpenBC experienced rapid user adoption within the German business community, growing from a niche startup to a recognized professional networking tool by 2006.^[9] The platform evolved to include group forums and event coordination, enhancing its utility for career and business connections in DACH countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland).^[10] In November 2006, the company rebranded to XING to support international ambitions while maintaining its stronghold in German-speaking markets.^[11] This period culminated in a transition to public company status later that year.^[11]

Expansion and rebranding

In December 2006, XING completed its initial public offering (IPO) on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, becoming the first Web 2.0 company to go public in Europe, with shares debuting on December 7 at an issue price of €30, raising approximately €35.7 million and achieving a market capitalization of €157 million.^[7] This milestone provided capital for technological enhancements and user acquisition, fueling early growth in membership from around 1.7 million to 10.5 million by 2010.^[6]^[12] Following the IPO, XING pursued international expansion, launching operations in markets like Spain and Turkey through targeted initiatives, which temporarily diversified its user base beyond the German-speaking DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland).^[6] However, by 2012, the company shifted its strategy to prioritize the DACH market, where it held a dominant position with over 5.3 million members and the majority of page views, recognizing higher revenue potential and competitive strength in this core area—approximately 90% of activity concentrated there. This refocus streamlined operations and boosted profitability, as DACH users demonstrated stronger engagement and premium adoption rates. Key to this growth phase were strategic decisions like the introduction of premium features, which originated in the platform's early years with paid memberships offering advanced search capabilities, ad-free experiences, and networking tools starting around 2006, evolving into a core revenue stream that accounted for the bulk of income initially.^[6] By 2013, XING reinvented its Premium membership for the platform's 10th anniversary, adding enhanced tools like improved profile analytics and exclusive content to drive user retention and upsell, contributing to sustained expansion.^[13] Early acquisitions further influenced this trajectory by integrating complementary services, such as event management capabilities, which broadened the platform's ecosystem and supported user growth without diluting the DACH focus.^[6] In mid-2019, XING SE underwent a significant rebranding to New Work SE, approved by shareholders on June 6, 2019, to encapsulate its evolving vision of fostering a "better working life" amid digital transformation and changing professional norms.^[14] The name change highlighted the company's expansion into a broader "New Work" ecosystem, incorporating tools for job matching, employer reviews, and career development across its portfolio, while retaining the XING brand for the core networking platform.^[14] This reorientation, supported by major shareholders, positioned the firm to address emerging trends like flexible work models and talent shortages in the DACH region.^[14]

Delisting and privatization

In June 2024, New Work SE, the parent company of XING, entered into a delisting agreement with its majority shareholder Burda Digital SE, which held approximately 74.22% of the shares at the time.^[15] This agreement facilitated a public delisting tender offer by Burda Digital SE at €66.25 per share, aimed at acquiring the remaining publicly traded shares to enable the company's removal from the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.^[15] The delisting became effective at the end of August 26, 2024, after which the shares were no longer tradable on the Prime Standard segment, though they continued to be available on certain open markets. The process culminated in full privatization in June 2025, when the Annual General Meeting of New Work SE approved a squeeze-out resolution for the remaining minority shareholders, transferring all outstanding shares to Burda Digital SE—a subsidiary of Hubert Burda Media—at a cash compensation of €105.65 per share, as determined and confirmed by a court-appointed expert.^[16] This made New Work SE, and by extension XING, a wholly owned subsidiary of Burda Digital SE, completing the transition to private ownership following Burda's long-term involvement that began with a 25.1% stake acquisition in 2009.^[17] The delisting and privatization were motivated by the desire to reduce administrative and compliance burdens associated with public status, including the elimination of quarterly reporting and ad hoc disclosure requirements under securities regulations.^[18] Strategically, this shift enabled greater operational flexibility to advance the company's transformation and reinforce its position as the leading recruiting partner in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland), where XING maintains its core user base and market focus.^[18] Additionally, the 2024 Annual General Meeting approved a regular dividend payment of €1 per eligible share, distributed prior to the full privatization.^[19]

Corporate governance

Leadership

XING, as part of New Work SE, has undergone several leadership transitions reflecting its evolution under Burda ownership, which has influenced executive appointments since the full acquisition in 2025.^[20] The company was founded in 2003 by Lars Hinrichs, who served as CEO until late 2008, guiding its initial growth as a professional networking platform before stepping down.^[21] Petra von Strombeck held the position of CEO at New Work SE from April 2020 until June 2025, when she stepped down following the annual general meeting, succeeded by Henning Rönneberg, who previously served as the company's CFO and COO.^[22]^[23] In October 2025, New Work SE announced a leadership reshuffle for XING, with Thomas Kindler stepping down as Managing Director at the end of the year after two years in the role; he was replaced by Simone Reif, who joined from StepStone as Managing Director and Chief Revenue Officer.^[24]^[25] On the supervisory board, Tom Bureau, CEO of Burda International, was appointed chair in June 2024, succeeding Martin Weiss, but he was replaced in June 2025 by Dr. Maximilian Preisser, general counsel at Hubert Burda Media, amid the company's privatization.^[19]^[26]

Ownership

XING AG, originally known as openBC, completed its initial public offering (IPO) on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in December 2006, marking it as the first Web 2.0 company to go public and establishing a significant public float with shares widely held by institutional and retail investors.^[6] This structure persisted until major changes in ownership began in the late 2000s, transitioning the company from broad public ownership to concentrated control under a single entity. In November 2009, Hubert Burda Media, through its subsidiary Burda Digital GmbH, acquired a 25.1% stake in XING AG for approximately €100 million, positioning it as the largest shareholder and signaling a strategic entry into the professional networking sector.^[27] Burda's influence grew steadily thereafter; by October 2012, following a mandatory takeover offer triggered by crossing the 30% threshold, the stake exceeded 50%, reaching 59.2% by December 2012 through the acquisition of additional shares.^[28] This majority ownership was maintained and refined over the years, with Burda Digital SE (the legal successor to Burda Digital GmbH) holding 50.01% of the voting rights as of December 31, 2019, under the ultimate control of Hubert Burda Media Holding Kommanditgesellschaft.^[29] The ownership evolution culminated in full privatization. In March 2024, Burda Digital SE increased its stake to 74.2%, paving the way for delisting from the stock exchange in August 2024.^[30] By May 2025, Burda held 97.07% of shares, enabling a squeeze-out of minority shareholders; this was approved at New Work SE's Annual General Meeting on June 24, 2025, granting Burda Digital SE 100% ownership and completing the shift to private status.^[26] Following this privatization, no other significant shareholders remain, with the company now wholly owned by Burda Digital SE as a subsidiary of Hubert Burda Media.^[31] This concentrated ownership structure has supported strategic expansions, including key acquisitions that bolstered the platform's capabilities.

Platform features

Core networking and job search tools

XING enables users to create detailed professional profiles that serve as digital resumes, highlighting skills, work experience, education, and career goals to facilitate initial connections with potential employers and peers.^[32] These profiles support networking by allowing users to connect with colleagues, join thousands of industry-specific groups for discussions and knowledge sharing, and participate in virtual or in-person events to build professional relationships.^[33] In 2010, XING acquired amiando AG, Europe's leading provider of online event management and ticketing services, and rebranded it as XING Events to enhance its networking capabilities.^[12] This integration allows members to discover and register for hundreds of thousands of personalized events annually, matched to their profiles and networks, promoting targeted professional interactions such as industry conferences and meetups.^[34] The platform's job marketplace features a vast database of approximately one million active job advertisements as of 2025, enabling users to search and apply for opportunities across various sectors.^[35] In 2025, XING introduced an innovative AI tool that makes hidden jobs visible—positions not publicly advertised but identified through analysis of user networks and preferences—addressing the fact that millions of opportunities remain inaccessible via traditional postings.^[35] This feature uses machine learning to suggest relevant roles based on user profiles, enhancing visibility into the concealed job market. Premium memberships, priced between €6.35 and €9.95 per month depending on billing cycle and location, unlock advanced tools such as enhanced search filters, increased profile visibility to recruiters, and priority access to job alerts.^[36] To promote transparency in the recruitment process, XING integrates with Kununu, acquired in 2013 for up to €9.4 million, allowing users to access employer reviews directly within job profiles.^[37] This connection enables job seekers to view anonymous feedback on company culture, management, and work-life balance from current and former employees, aiding informed career decisions.^[38]

Mobile applications and integrations

XING offers dedicated mobile applications for both iOS and Android devices, enabling users to access professional networking and job search functionalities on the go. The iOS app, available on the Apple App Store, allows professionals to browse over one million job listings, manage connections, and receive tailored career recommendations, with a focus on seamless profile updates and networking from mobile devices.^[39] Similarly, the Android version, downloadable from Google Play, supports job exploration, employer discovery, and contact management, rated at 4.1 stars based on user feedback emphasizing its utility for career advancement.^[40] These apps incorporate push notifications to alert users about new connection requests, messages, and relevant professional activities, enhancing real-time engagement.^[41] For job seekers, the apps facilitate push notifications for job alerts based on personalized search criteria, complementing email notifications to ensure timely opportunities.^[42] In terms of integrations, XING supports browser plug-ins that streamline data import for recruitment and contact management. For instance, third-party extensions like the Carerix Social Browser enable users to parse candidate profiles directly from XING into applicant tracking systems (ATS) during browsing sessions.^[43] Additionally, integrations with Microsoft Outlook are available through tools such as Sync.blue, which synchronizes XING contacts with Microsoft Graph API for seamless import into email and calendar workflows.^[44] For CRM systems, XING connects with platforms like Workbooks CRM and Zoho CRM via automation services, allowing automatic contact creation and data syncing from events or networking activities.^[45] Calendar integration is further supported through Cronofy, enabling synchronization across major providers including Outlook.^[46] Recent enhancements to XING's mobile and integration ecosystem include the introduction of Quick Search and features for job advertisements. In April 2025, the Quick Search tool was launched within the Job Ad Designer, allowing recruiters to efficiently track and manage ongoing job projects from mobile or desktop interfaces.^[47] These features support on-the-go recruitment by facilitating faster application processes. For businesses, XING provides enterprise groups and API access to enhance organizational networking. Enterprise groups function as closed communities with customizable access paths and interface designs, allowing companies to create private spaces for internal collaboration and external partner engagement. Access groups within the platform enable administrators to define notification settings and permissions for user segments in job ads, such as admins and recruiters.^[48] The XING E-Recruiting API offers developers programmatic access to job integration features, including posting, searching, and applicant management, tailored for business applications.^[49] These tools integrate into broader recruitment workflows, permitting enterprises to embed XING functionalities into their CRM and ATS systems for streamlined talent acquisition.

Business operations

User base and engagement

As of 2025, XING maintains a robust user base concentrated in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland), with a total of 22.5 million registered members.^[50] This figure reflects steady growth in professional networking within these German-speaking markets, where the platform serves as a primary hub for career-oriented connections.^[51] User engagement on XING remains strong among active professionals, with consistent interaction, particularly for job searching and regional networking, though daily usage rates are notably lower than those on global competitors like LinkedIn, with only about 14% of users accessing XING daily compared to 86% for LinkedIn.^[52] Despite this, XING's focus on localized professional exchanges fosters deeper regional ties, making it a preferred tool for DACH-based career development.^[53] Demographically, XING's audience skews toward younger professionals, with the largest age group being 25- to 34-year-olds, who represent the core of its active visitors.^[54] The user base is predominantly male, comprising approximately 61% of the total, and centers on DACH professionals in industries such as IT, engineering, and finance.^[54] International reach extends modestly through integration with InterNations, the expat network acquired by XING's parent company in 2017, attracting some global expatriates in the region for cross-cultural professional networking.^[55] Recent platform enhancements, including AI-driven job matching tools, have contributed to sustained user growth by improving search efficiency and personalization.^[50]

Revenue model and financial performance

XING, operated by New Work SE, primarily generates revenue through a combination of premium subscriptions for individual users, job postings and recruitment services for businesses, and advertising targeted at its professional network. These streams are divided into key segments: B2C offerings like paid memberships on the XING platform, HR solutions including e-recruiting tools such as job ads and talent access services, and B2B marketing solutions encompassing display ads and employer branding. This diversified model leverages the platform's user base to drive ad revenue while emphasizing high-value recruitment services in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland).^[56]^[57] In 2022, New Work SE reported total pro forma revenues of €313.4 million, with significant contributions from its recruitment and subscription segments amid a strong employment market. The following year saw a slight decline to €305.6 million in pro forma revenues, reflecting broader economic challenges in hiring, though the HR solutions segment grew by 5% year-over-year. For the first half of 2024, group revenues stood at €133.7 million, a 12% decrease from €151.7 million in the same period of 2023, primarily due to an 18% drop in B2C revenues as XING repositioned toward job-focused networking and reduced low-margin consumer features.^[58]^[59]^[18] Following New Work SE's delisting from the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in August 2024 and full privatization by Burda Digital SE, the company shifted strategic focus to high-margin recruitment services in the DACH region, benefiting from reduced public disclosure obligations. This transition supports diversification through integrated services like kununu employer reviews and onlyfy talent solutions, enhancing revenue stability without the pressures of quarterly public reporting. As of late 2025, detailed financial metrics remain limited due to the private status, though the emphasis on recruitment underscores ongoing efforts to capitalize on regional job market dynamics.^[15]^[30]

Acquisitions and partnerships

XING AG, the operator of the professional networking platform, pursued a strategy of growth through targeted acquisitions to enhance its service offerings in event management, employer branding, expat networking, candidate management, and specialized recruiting. In December 2010, XING acquired Amiando AG, Europe's leading provider of online event management and ticketing solutions, for a total of €10.3 million, including an initial payment of €5.1 million and additional contingent payments. This acquisition allowed XING to integrate event creation and ticketing features directly into its platform, which were rebranded as XING Events, thereby expanding its utility for professional networking beyond job searching to include offline and online event organization.^[60] In January 2013, XING acquired kununu GmbH, Austria's prominent employer review platform, for up to €9.4 million, comprising an initial €3.6 million and performance-based earn-outs. Kununu's integration strengthened XING's e-recruiting ecosystem by providing transparent employer insights, enabling users to assess company cultures and reputations, which complemented XING's job-matching tools and positioned it as a comprehensive career advisory service. This move targeted the growing demand for authenticity in employer branding within German-speaking markets.^[61] XING continued its expansion in 2017 with two significant deals. In July, it acquired InterNations GmbH, the world's largest expat networking community, for a base price of approximately €10 million, potentially rising to €30 million based on milestones. InterNations, with over 3 million members at the time, focused on connecting expatriates for social and professional support, allowing XING to diversify into international mobility and global talent networking, particularly for cross-border professionals. Later that month, XING purchased Prescreen GmbH, a Vienna-based candidate management system provider, for a base of €17 million, with the total potentially reaching €27 million including earn-outs. Prescreen's AI-driven applicant tracking capabilities streamlined recruitment processes for corporate clients, integrating seamlessly with XING's job board to automate sourcing and evaluation, thus enhancing efficiency in talent acquisition.^[55]^[62] In April 2019, XING acquired Honeypot GmbH, a Berlin-based platform specializing in tech recruiting, for an initial €22 million, with up to an additional €35 million in earn-outs tied to performance targets. Honeypot's reverse-recruiting model, where developers apply to verified jobs, addressed the shortage of IT talent in German-speaking countries by matching high-caliber engineers with employers, bolstering XING's position in the competitive tech hiring segment. These acquisitions collectively broadened XING's ecosystem, contributing to user base growth through specialized features that attracted diverse professional demographics.^[63] Following its rebranding to New Work SE and full privatization via acquisition by Burda Digital SE in June 2025, XING has leveraged synergies within the Burda ecosystem, including enhanced content distribution and digital media integrations. Recent partnerships emphasize AI advancements, such as optimizations for job ad readability and candidate matching on the platform, to improve recruitment precision and user engagement.^[64]

Impact and developments

Recruitment ecosystem

XING has established itself as a leading platform for executive search in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland), where it facilitates regional networking and supports quick hires through AI-driven tools. The platform's TalentManager provides recruiters with access to a specialized database of professionals, primarily in DACH, enabling targeted active sourcing for mid-sized firms and executive roles. AI algorithms within TalentManager enhance talent discovery by offering smart filters and predictive suggestions, reducing time-to-hire for specialized positions.^[65]^[66]^[50] Integrations with specialized services further strengthen XING's recruitment ecosystem. Through its acquisition of Honeypot in 2019, XING incorporated a platform focused on matching tech talent with employers via reverse recruitment, allowing candidates to showcase skills and receive direct outreach from companies. Additionally, XING's partnership with Prescreen, integrated into its onlyfy Application Manager since 2018, streamlines applicant tracking by automating candidate data transfer and process management, particularly for IT and executive hires in the DACH market. These tools emphasize efficiency in sourcing and onboarding, with Honeypot's model complementing XING's broader networking for tech-focused executive searches.^[63]^[67]^[68] Compared to LinkedIn, XING demonstrates strengths in the DACH region, particularly for mid-sized companies seeking localized executive talent, where response rates for regional B2B inquiries are 22% higher. Studies highlight XING's edge in faster, more relevant engagements within this market, supported by its cultural alignment and AI enhancements for rapid candidate matching. Premium features, such as unlimited messaging in TalentManager, further amplify these advantages for enterprise recruiters.^[50]^[53] In 2025, XING enhanced its enterprise solutions, including an AI-powered job ad designer that optimizes ad creation for better reach and targeting, and application status overviews in onlyfy providing real-time tracking and automated updates for recruiters and candidates. These updates build on XING's ecosystem to support comprehensive hiring workflows, from ad posting to status management, tailored for DACH executive recruitment.^[69]^[70]^[71]

Recent initiatives and reports

In January 2025, XING launched its "No Bullshit" 360-degree brand campaign, aimed at positioning the platform as an authentic and indispensable partner for job seekers by emphasizing real, unfiltered networking experiences.^[1] The campaign, running from early January through June 2025, utilized television, out-of-home advertising, moving images, and display ads to highlight user stories of successful job placements without hype or exaggeration.^[1] Later in 2025, XING released its annual Labour Market Report, based on a survey of 3,500 employees across German-speaking countries conducted by Appinio in July.^[72] The report underscored a strong preference for reduced working hours, with 67% of respondents expressing a desire to work less, particularly among younger age groups (74% for ages 25–34 and 71% for 35–44).^[72] It also revealed low overtime willingness, as 60% declined additional hours due to factors like stress (65%) and lack of time for personal interests (55%), though 49% indicated bonuses or premiums could motivate them to extend work time.^[72] To enhance job discovery, XING introduced an AI-powered tool in 2025 designed to uncover hidden job opportunities not publicly advertised, addressing the gap where approximately one million job ads are visible on the platform but millions more remain undisclosed through internal networks or direct sourcing.^[35] This innovation includes features for improved visibility and reporting on such opportunities, aligning with broader recruitment ecosystem enhancements by streamlining access to non-traditional postings.^[35] In October 2025, XING underwent a leadership reshuffle, with Simone Reif replacing Thomas Kindler as managing director, effective at the end of 2025, signaling a strategic pivot from its traditional professional networking focus toward greater emphasis on job board functionalities to better serve direct hiring needs.^[24] This shift, announced by parent company New Work SE, aims to adapt to evolving user demands for efficient job matching amid competitive pressures in the recruitment space.^[24]
