Paris, France – July 10, 2012. Based on the model of fraternities, Muxi constitutes the first true online professional social network. Launched officially today, Muxi allows its users to share their professional experience, ask questions, find colleagues, develop their network and more generally connect with people doing the same job.
The first true professional social network
â??We started from the following assessment : current professional social networks were launched before Facebook and are mainly large databases of online CVs for recruiters rather than true social networks,â? said Bertrand Besse, co-founder of Muxi. â??As a result, we have imagined a new kind of professional social network which would be a real place of exchange between its members. For us, the most logical way to build such a network is to gather people according to their professional activity.â?
The logic of traditional web sites like LinkedIn is to start from the contacts of a person to allow him to recreate his own network online. Muxiâ??s approach is the opposite: Muxi gathers people sharing the same professional activity to allow them to connect between them so that they could, in the end, develop their network.
My Fraternity, My Circle
Muxi draws its inspiration from the fraternity concept: once registered on Muxi, a user joins a fraternity corresponding to his industry (medicine, law, journalism, etc). He can then connect with all the members of his fraternity. He can also add to his circle colleagues he wishes to follow in particular.
In the end, Muxi offers what people are looking for: simplicity. â??People do not want privacy settings which complicate the use of social networks and which take hours to configure. On Muxi, you can only publish a post to your fraternity. And a post is either private or public. It is that simpleâ?.
iPhone, iPad and web
Social networks are being accessed more and more through tablets and mobile phones. Thus, Muxi is available on the iPhone (via the App Store) and is completely compatible with the iPad.
