Speaker
Description
The 45th International Conference on High Energy Physics, the flagship
conference of our field, gathering over a thousand delegates, will be hosted in Lund-Malmö on 17-24 July 2030. For the first time in the 80-year history of the series, ICHEP comes to Sweden and the Nordic region.
This talk presents the winning bid and what carried it: a compact, sustainable and deliberately affordable conference model built on the Öresund region's scientific infrastructure, backed by Lund University, the Particle and Astroparticle Section of the Swedish Physical Society, the City of Malmö and Region Skåne. Above all, it opens the conversation within our community that must follow. Hosting ICHEP is a national and Nordic undertaking — from the Local Organizing Committee and its working groups to the programme committees, convenerships and outreach — and a rare opportunity to place Swedish particle and astroparticle physics at the centre of the world stage in the middle of the post-Strategy decade. I will outline the organizational roadmap and invite your opinions, suggestions and expressions of interest. The road to 2030 starts here.
