DESCRIPTION: Metasurfaces are planar metamaterials consisting of nanostruc
 tures that allow to manipulate the phase\, amplitude and polarization of l
 ight on a subwavelength scale with unprecedented control\, representing th
 e state-of-the-art in structured light. This nanotechnology is not anymore
 \, an academic curiosity: today metasurfaces are being mass produced and c
 an be fabricated with large areas (10 cm) using advanced lithography techn
 iques. These meta-optics are pushing the boundaries of structured light\, 
 allowing to exploit all of its degrees of freedom\, even creating correlat
 ions between these resulting in complex multimodal forms of light\, such a
 s space-time beams. In this contribution we will discuss the most recent a
 dvances in the field and where the most exciting opportunities lie ahead\,
  in particular in the areas of nonlinear optical neural networks and struc
 tured laser-matter interactions.
