Session 1: Era of PLATO and Ariel space missions – Why do we need PLATOSpec and similar instrumentation?
Covered topics:
- space missions and the need for ground-based instrumentation
- ground-based surveys and history (HAT-Pi, ….) their evolution and synergy with space missions
Invited talks Session 1: TBC

Session 2: Instrumentation with small telescopes (focus on PLATOSpec but not only)
Covered topics:
- Technical discussion, calibration, precision of RVs, stability – ESPRESSO technical
- Available telescope time, benefits of small telescopes etc...
- Projects at La Silla on mid-sized aperture telescopes
Invited talks : TBC

Session 3: Characterisation of the host star with high resolution spectroscopy
Covered topics:
- stellar activity
- problems for the characterisation of exoplanets
- chromospheric characterisation (magnetic cycles)
- stellar atmospheric parameters
- young systems
Invited talks: TBC

Session 4 : Architecture of the planetary systems
Covered topics:
- focus on giant planets
- mass determination
- synergy with Gaia
- R-M effect (link with Ariel and exoatmospheres)
- different stellar parameters – more massive stars (can include circumbinary planets)
- multiple systems – long periodic planets, detections
