In early 2010, I approached my former colleagues Thibaud Latour and Alain Vagner, from the Centre de Recherche Public Henri Tudor, with whom I was working during my master project, and asked about new or ongoing projects that could be a suitable subject for my Travail de candidature. Among the list of the many projects under the supervision of the CRP-HT was one project that particularly caught my attention: a social networking application developed for the IHM’10 conference held this time in Luxembourg.

More specifically, the Université de Luxembourg, the Centre de Recherche Public Henri Tudor and the Association Francophone d’Interaction Homme-Machine were organising the 22nd edition of the Conférence Francophone sur l’Interaction Homme-Machine from September 20, 2010 until September 23, 2010 in Luxembourg. As the IHM'10 conference is the francophone conference of reference on human computer interaction subjects, the Centre de Recherche Public Henri Tudor suggested to realise a social networking application dedicated to scientific conferences contexts that could help researchers navigate among the mass of social information available to the different participants.
