Hello Jérôme,
It sounds like an interesting option, thank you for suggestion.
There are many yade users at IRSTEA.
Keep in mind that organizing such things needs time to secure some 
funding, followed by more time to announce the event (people will hardly 
change their schedule if they discover it just a couple months in 
advance) and invite some speakers. Next summer could be a bit too early 
already if you'll start the position in september (congrats!). Or you'd 
have to be very efficient. :)
Let us know when you know more precisely what could be possible.
Cheers
Bruno
