Open BC

About Open BC

Open BC, which stands for Open Business Club, was established in 2003 as a social software platform for small businesses. Growing steadily during its first few years, Open BC not only became a leading service in its country of origin, Germany, but it began to emerge as one of the key business-to-business services in the world. Therefore, you might be wondering why you have not heard of Open BC. The reason is simply that Open BC changed its name to Xing in 2006 in order to continue the company's impressive growth and improve its marketability worldwide. Xing is now used by more than 7 million business professionals from across the globe every single day. In the spirit of a worldwide community, the Xing website supports 16 different languages, including English, Spanish, Dutch, German and Italian. The company's headquarters remain in Hamburg, although it has subsidiary offices in Beijing, Barcelona, Milan and Istanbul, employing some 240 people. Whilst these details are no doubt impressive, you may still be wondering what Xing is all about and how it might benefit you. As anybody who has been in business will be aware, it is not always what you know so much as who you know. Word of mouth and building contacts are key to any business, especially new start ups and small outfits. Xing, therefore, provides you with access to millions of other business professionals and it also enables you to see how others are connected, which is immeasurably useful when it comes to building your own contacts. Basic membership with Xing is free and the company also offers a number of other services, such as its advanced job portal, advertising facility and community builder functions – so, if you want your business to succeed, sign up today.
