We are excited to announce the 15th European Conference on Accelerators in Applied Research and Technology (ECAART 15), which will take place from September 8th to 12th, 2025, in Zurich, Switzerland. It is an honor to welcome the accelerator community back to Zurich, again 30 years after our last gathering in 1995. This conference is aimed to be an opportunity to promote personal academic collaboration, exchange scientific ideas, and strengthen connections within the field.

Abstract submission has opened on April 1st, 2025. The submission deadline is June 1st, 2025.
The main organizer is Laboratory of Ion Beam Physics, ETH Zurich.
