The 1st workshop on Boosted Dark Matter (BDM 2023) will take place in Institute for Basic Science, Daejeon, Korea on June 16 - 18, 2023. This is a satellite workshop followed by the 16th International Conference on Interconnections between Particle Physics and Cosmology (PPC 2023) https://indico.ibs.re.kr/event/540/ (June 12 - 16). 

BDM 2023 is aiming to gather various theoretical and experimental experts who have worked on the fast-moving dark sector scenarios, which we dub "Boosted Dark Matter (BDM)" for simplicity.

Recently, various new ideas of dark sector theories including a light energetic dark matter with relativistic or semi-relativistic kinetic energy boosted by dark sector structures, highly energetic cosmic-rays or neutrinos, and astrophysical objects such as supernovae, primordial blackhole, etc, have been actively proposed. It is intriguing that these new types of signals have been seriously searched by current neutrino and dark matter experiments such as Super-Kamiokande, COSINE-100, PANDA-X, and CDEX. Moreover, the collaborations of future generation experiments such as DUNE and COSINE-200 will join the probes of BDM. We would like to have an opportunity to boost up
