Altought widely used and recognized in the scientic com-munity, the i* framework has, until now, failed to impose itself into enterprise practices. There are many ways that can be followed to favor industry-adoption. Among them, we believe that an integration into the (Rational) Unied Process, which already includes business modeling as a preliminary step in software development and furnishes custom syn-tax and semantic to do so could be an interesting approach. This paper summarizes the ideas of a research aimed at mapping i* model elements and RUP/UML business modeling ones with the best possible semantic match. The willingness is to provide RUP practitioners a powerful tool for capturing and analyzing social and organizational contexts of soft-ware systems based on the syntax they already know with as closely as possible related semantics.
