Abstract

On March 25 and 26, 2014, the kick-off of the INAF Progetto Premiale 2012 iALMA took place in the beautiful and historic location of the Villa Il Gioiello. iALMA workpackage leaders from several Italian institutes gathered together to carefully plan the first year activities for the project and to discuss the detailed project implementation with the iALMA External Advisory Board. The iALMA kick-off meeting was followed by an international workshop attended by participants from all ALMA partners in Chile, Europe, Japan and North America, and focused on developing the foundations of an upgrade of the ALMA Observatory aimed at equipping all 66 antennas with the a new receiver: the so-called Band 2+3. Here I provide a brief account of the goals of the iALMA project and of the ALMA Band 2+3 project.
