Sakata Memorial KMI Mini-Workshop on “Strong Coupling Gauge Theories Beyond the Standard Model” (SCGT14Mini) was held at KMI from March 3rd to 5th, 2014. The purpose of the workshop was to discuss theoretical and phenomenological issues of strong coupling gauge theories beyond the standard model. About 60 researchers attended the workshop, and through the oral and poster presentation, fruitful discussions were held in particular about the composite Higgs models for the electroweak physics in the context of LHC experiments and …
