  • 14-16 Oct. 2013, 
  • 15-17 Oct. 2014, 
  • 3-5 Nov. 2015,

  • 19-22 Oct 2021 
  • 19-21 Oct 2022  and 
  • 25-27 Oct 2023
• Goal of the meeting: consider the latest results from LHCb, discuss possible interpretations and identify important channels and observables to test leading theoretical frameworks in the near future of LHCb data-taking.
• Participation: all interested theorists are welcome to participate, and are encouraged to register at the workshop INDICO page.  To express interest in giving a presentation, please contact the conveners of the relevant stream.  Unfortunately, to allow informal discussion, we must restrict the participation to exclude members of competing experiments.
