About MeWho am I

• I am a Social Semantic Web researcher exploring the possibilities of Web and Web-like technologies to help people in their everyday lives, and help improve the society.
• After finishing my PhD at the University Paris-Sorbonne IV (STIH Laboratory) under the supervision of Dr. Philippe Laublet, I started a new adventure by creating Sépage, an innovative company trying to bring the fruits of my research to modern Web applications. Semantic Relevance Engines that Sépage builds aim at improving the capacity of the Web to serve its user's infromational needs in many different contexts.
• As a side activity I also advise a number of other tech statups, and work with students by giving university courses and supervising internships and master projects. I remain a member of STIH Laboratory at Paris-Sorbonne and continue to participate in programme committees of several academic events.
