Primordial perturbations, which seeded the structure of the entire universe, were generated before the onset of the Big Bang by a primordial epoch, the nature of which has largely remained elusive. Theoretical and experimental studies of these perturbations could improve our understanding of the cosmological and particle physics nature of the primordial universe. Broadly speaking, the research is akin to the study of colliders in particle physics and is often referred to as cosmological collider physics. The purpose of this workshop is to exchange ideas, promote collaboration, and discuss recent developments in this field, and to facilitate its interactions with other closely related fields in observational cosmology and wider aspects of cosmological correlation functions.
