Sumario:The LHCb experiment has been performing precision measurements of Standard Model parameters and exploring physics beyond the Standard Model. Detector Upgrade I is being implemented and plans for Upgrade II are being formulated. Both upgrades include novel technologies and a unique triggerless data acquisition system. The experiment has been at the cutting edge of not only studies of $b$ and $c$ hadron decays, but also studies of exotic hadron spectroscopy, searches for dark-sector particles, electroweak measurements, and heavy ion collision physics in both colliding beams and fixed-target modes. Several hints of departure from lepton flavor universality have been uncovered. These topics are part of the “Rare Processes and Precision,” “Energy,” “Instrumentation,” and “Computing” frontiers.
