    • Belief

      You can achieve anything if you have the right people around you. We are convinced of this, and we have therefore always paid a great deal of attention to the subject of “people”.


      What this means for you: at tolimit, we have people ready and willing to assist you who are enthusiastic about what they do and who are really committed to their work. They are team players who prefer to use the term “we” instead of “I”; people who take on your tasks with the same diligence and enthusiasm as if they were their own. In this way they really bring to life tolimit’s philosophy of “winning together”.

      It will no doubt come as no surprise to you that this belief influences everything we do internally also externally, including how we choose our customers and partners. If you like the sound of “winning together”, we’d love to join and assist you.

      We are looking forward to establishing a long and successful partnership with you.

      • Hans-Bernd Kamps

        Three questions to Hans-Bernd Kamps, tolimit founder, visionary and director:

        What was the key motivation behind the establishment of tolimit?
        Turning my two hobbies, motorsport and people, into my career: Of course I never imagined at the time that it would reach the scale it has today.
         
        What is particularly important for you in business?
        It may sound corny, but honesty, trust, loyalty. Many talk about these attributes but few practise them. Hence I am particularly pleased that our partners are exactly on our wavelength.  

        What is the background to the new slogan, “winning together”?
        It’s based on that fact that we are always trying to bring people together in a way that benefits everyone. I think we do that pretty well and our partners certainly often commend us on this approach.

      • Jörg Michaelis

        Three questions to Jörg Michaelis, event expert and tolimit pioneer:

        What for you is really typical of tolimit?
        Our “nothing is impossible” philosophy. Making the impossible possible.
        And putting people at the centre of everything we do.

        How important is loyalty to you?
        Hans-Bernd (Kamps) always says I am the most loyal person he knows. If he says that, it must be true. Which I say out of blind loyalty to him.☺

        Why is it that guests are so fascinated by your events?
        Very simply: Enthusiasm is born when expectations are exceeded. And we work very hard to achieve that every day.

      • Kai Ogiermann

        Three questions to Kai Ogiermann, people finder and tolimit personnel developer:

        What do you see as your most important responsibility?
        Communication, communication and again communication. Dealing with things before they get out of hand. Building bridges and clearing up misunderstandings.
        At the end of the day, we are all only people.  

        Professional know-how or gut instinct – how do you find the right people for tolimit?
        Both are important aspects. Of course they need to have the right specialist knowledge. But it’s also important to have the right chemistry. I have to say this strategy has served us well so far.

        In confidence: how do you become a personnel developer at tolimit?
        Ideal requirements are an unorthodox haircut and training as a mechanic. It worked for me in any case. But seriously, the decisive factor was that I really wanted it.

      • Daniela Rebholz

        Three questions to Daniela Rebholz, business networking expert:

        What makes a good networker, in your opinion?
        A fantastic network of contacts is important, of course. A good networker must also have 100% integrity and be trustworthy. But the most important asset is to have a good sense for people.

        Why do sports play such a big role as a working platform for tolimit relations?
        Because you meet so many interesting people in such an arena. And because you can talk about business in a far more relaxed and natural way when enjoying sporting events than when in the office.

        What drives you personally in your work?
        Quite simply, I find it hugely enjoyable to get to know new and interesting people every day. And I put that desire to good use for our customers and partners.

    • Stories

      tolimit’s story so far, without claiming to be a comprehensive review:

      In 1993, Hans-Bernd Kamps founded his own racing team and immediately took on the role of driver himself.
      In 1994, tolimit practised live cooking in the paddock for the first time at race weekends, and established itself as a culinary trendsetter in the motorsports scene.
      In 2000, tolimit met an up-and-coming Formula BMW driver called Timo Glock and, over the course of the subsequent years, helped make him into a Formula 1 driver in spite of all the inherent adversities associated with the business.
      In 2002, tolimit placed its fleet of 12 yellow Porsche Carreras in the company car park. It then had to constantly explain that it was not a car rental firm but that these were driving machines for events providing unique racing experiences.
      In 2003, Hans-Bernd Kamps left his specialist tyre business with a heavy heart. It’s sometimes necessary to make such decisions in life…
      In 2006, tolimit and its racing team celebrated victory in the Porsche Supercup in Monaco. And team manager Jörg Michaelis paid for the celebrations with a broken nose.
      In 2007, tolimit christened a truck trailer with the name “Business Truck”, thereby laying the foundation for many of today’s successful business platforms and relation management concepts.

      to be continued…

    • Culture

      The way we work together with each other is a matter of great importance for us as we see people as a key factor for success, and teamwork as the ultimate goal.

      Typical tolimit places and activities such as the “room of well-being”, “bullying awareness day” and the “communal company breakfast” may sound unusual when you first come across them. However, behind these activities lies something that is a given for us in our everyday work but which is an aspect that is unfortunately often neglected in many businesses: constantly working on ensuring that communication and interaction with each other works well in order to create a fair, cooperative and respectful working environment. And working on ensuring that the main motivation is “I’d like to”, not “I have to”.


      Our invitation to you: Drop in sometime. See how it works. Maybe you will get one or two ideas for your company along the way.

  • live

    There are many businesses offering live action as a means of communication; but tolimit is unique. Don’t believe it? Well, it’s true.

    For one thing, tolimit always uses sports as the basis for event platforms. This guarantees maximum emotions but admittedly does not justify the company’s claim of uniqueness. But secondly, tolimit events are somewhat out of the ordinary.
    In truth they are unusual, dramaturgic and well thought-out events that give participants an insider view that they would normally be denied. They are communication platforms that naturally bring people into conversation on both a business and a private level. They are meeting places that inspire and enthuse all those that take part, and which bring people closer together.

    This results in unique experiences that leave a lasting impression, and which help you achieve your communication goals on an ongoing basis – whatever they may be.

    Why not give it a try. We bet that you will agree with us when we say: there are many businesses offering live action as a means of communication. But tolimit is unique.

  • relations

    Business deals are generally made between people first– with the companies assuming the second row.
    tolimit relations has really mastered the art of bringing the right people together through business networking. It identifies people who are suited to each other both personally and professionally and for whom it makes sense to get to know one another.
