The program includes an overview of current developments at MAX IV, an introduction to MAX4U, and interactive discussions on scientific opportunities and challenges.MAX4U is an initiative to develop a next-generation synchrotron facility building on the strengths of MAX IV. It aims to enable new science through an upgrade to the synchrotron ring and close collaboration with the Swedish research community. The meeting will include presentations by MAX IV senior management, outlining their strategic vision for MAX IV and MAX4U.Participants will have the opportunity to engage directly with these leaders, discuss the emerging MAX4U Science Case (<a href="https://www.maxiv.lu.se/beamlines-accelerators/max-4u/science-case/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.maxiv.lu.se/beamlines-accelerators/max-4u/science-case/</a> ) and provide feedback to MAX IV on scientific priorities and future needs.We look forward to welcoming users and all researchers with an interest in MAX IV!Preliminary program (13:00-15:00):1. This is going on at MAX IV (20 min): presentation by MAXIV guests. 2.
