XL Video of Hamburg was founded in 1998 by René de Keyser and Denis Papin, with the latter at that time assuming the role of Managing Director. Under his leadership, XL Video grew to become a market leader in the supply of large screen video equipment for shows, tours, trade fairs and sporting events - serving such acts and events as Marius Müller-Westernhagen, Formula One and DTM motor racing, and the trade fair appearances inter alia of Mercedes-Benz.
Thorsten Lipp launched XL Solutions in 2004, initially focussing on the planning and implementation of large screen video for corporate events. Later, the portfolio was expanded to include project realisation and equipment rental. The company's clients include Opel, Renault and Toyota.
