abstract = {{The European Plasma Accelerator with eXcellence In Applications (EuPRAXIA) infrastructure* was proposed in 2014 and started its design phase in 2015 with an EU funded Design Study. By the end of 2019 the World‘s first conceptual design report (CDR) for a plasma-based user facility was completed. The EuPRAXIA CDR** describes the design of a compact and innovative research infrastructure that delivers ultra-short pulses of up to 5 GeV electrons, positrons, X-rays, FEL light and laser pulses to users from various fields. The project received government support from various European contries and was placed on the ESFRI roadmap of high priority European research infrastructures at end of 2021. The EuPRAXIA headquarters and one of the two construction sites is located at Frascati, Rome, in Italy. The second site will be decided among candidates in Czech Republic, Italy, Spain and UK. Presently several projects, supported by national and EU funds, are ongoing towards the implementation of this new research infrastructure. The talk will present the concept, user cases, the technical status, including successful FEL lasing***, the potential and challenges for EuPRAXIA.}},
