Description
I will discuss various ways on how to avoid the flavor problem in strong electroweak symmetry breaking with special emphasis on holographic models. I will introduce a full GIM mechanism (0709.1714), partial compositeness and its tension with the data (0804.1954), and realizing 5D MFV via shining (0907.0474). LHC signatures will be mentioned if time allows.
