As the experimental program at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) explores the TeV energy range, there is potential for the discovery of new strong interactions beyond the QCD sector of the standard model. Strong interactions arise in several promising extensions of the standard model, which are being actively explored in the particle theory community.  The  workshop seeks to  bring together particle theorists working in (1) lattice field theory and simulation, (2) non-perturbative gauge theory dynamics and (3) string/gauge duality to explore fundamental mechanisms and their generic consequences for phenomenological signatures.
