Description

Investigating particle production in small systems has become instrumental
in probing non-perturbative contributions to hadron structure and hadroniza-
tion mechanisms. The LHCb spectrometer unique geometry at the LHC along
with its particle identification and tracking capabilities allow for new studies
of the multiplicity-dependent enhancement of strange hadrons in the forward
region. Aggregating results of this kind will provide insight into how collective
effects modify hadronization, even in proton-proton collisions. In this contri-
bution, recent and upcoming measurements from the LHCb collaboration re-
garding the relative production rates of strange hadrons as well as how they are
modified by event activity will be discussed
