<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">The 11th Workshop </span></strong><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">in this series will further the goal of providing a Forum for new initiatives in innovative thin films and related technology to advance future generations of superconducting RF accelerators. Present superconducting RF accelerator technology is based on predominantly bulk niobium, for which the state of the art in performance is reaching the theoretical limit. Thin film technology offers the prospect of considerable savings in fabrication costs and opens the way with innovative technologies to the use of alternative superconducting materials with enhanced intrinsic properties such as critical temperature and critical field. Intensive and coordinated R&amp;D effort is of decisive importance for the scientific community.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;"><br><br><strong>The primary aim of the workshop</strong> is to support this initiative by providing an opportunity to bring together individuals and institutions working in this effort and infusing expertise of specialists from related disciplines (superconductivity, plasma physics, material science, nanotechnology, RF engineering and industry). Reports on work from each participating group and extensive discussions on existing problems, new ideas and programs for the future constitute the primary focus of the program.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">This 2024 edition will present 2 very specific particularities:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">First it is sponsored by the European project <a href="https://ifast-project.eu/home">IFAST</a&gt;, so exceptionnaly no inscription fee will be asked. Since we have only limited slot possibilities, please make your inscription only if you are sure to come.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">Secondly, we want to take opportunity that all the main actors in the field will be present, to elaborate an "ideal" international roadmap for the years 2025-2030, in conjunction with the mission from the WP9 from IFAST on thin films. Everybody is welcome to help build a program that gathers all the steps that need to be taken and could be considered as .</span></p>
