DESCRIPTION:Metasurfaces are planar metamaterials consisting of nanostruct
 ures that allow to manipulate the phase\, amplitude and polarization of li
 ght on a subwavelength scale with unprecedented control\, representing the
  state-of-the-art in structured light. This nanotechnology is not anymore\
 , an academic curiosity: today metasurfaces are being mass produced and ca
 n be fabricated with large areas (10 cm) using advanced lithography techni
 ques. These meta-optics are pushing the boundaries of structured light\, a
 llowing to exploit all of its degrees of freedom\, even creating correlati
 ons between these resulting in complex multimodal forms of light\, such as
  space-time beams. In this contribution we will discuss the most recent ad
 vances in the field and where the most exciting opportunities lie ahead\, 
 in particular in the areas of nonlinear optical neural networks and struct
 ured laser-matter interactions.
