Description

During the LHC long shutdown 2, in 2019/2020, the LHCb collaboration is
going to perform a major upgrade of the experiment. The upgraded
detector is designed to operate at a five times higher instantaneous
luminosity than in Run II and can be read out at the full bunch-crossing
frequency of the LHC, abolishing the need for a hardware trigger. This
talk will present a short overview of the upgrade activities and
highlight the physics reach of the upgraded experiment for selected
physics topics. In addition, plans for future upgrades will be briefly outlined.
