This conference follows previous events at Cambridge (UK), Cambridge (MA), Oxford and Leiden. Applied category theory is important to a growing community of researchers who study computer science, logic, engineering, physics, biology, chemistry, social science, linguistics and other subjects using category-theoretic tools. The background and experience of our members is as varied as the systems being studied. The goal of the Applied Category Theory conference series is to bring researchers together, strengthen the applied category theory community, disseminate the latest results, and facilitate further development of the field. SUBMISSIONS We accept submissions in English of original research papers, talks about work accepted/submitted/published elsewhere, and demonstrations of relevant software. Accepted original research papers will be published in a proceedings volume. The keynote addresses will be chosen from the accepted papers. The conference will include an industry showcase event and community meeting. We particularly encourage people from underrepresented groups to submit their work and the organizers are committed to non-discrimination, equity, and inclusion. Submission formats: 1. Extended Abstracts should be submitted describing the contribution and providing a basis for determining the topics and quality of the anticipa= ted presentation (1-2 pages). These submissions will be adjudicated for inclusion as a talk at the conference. Such work should include referenc= es to any longer papers, preprints, or manuscripts providing additional details. 2. Conference Papers should present original, high-quality work in the style of a computer science conference paper (up to 14 pages, not counti= ng the bibliography; detailed proofs may be included in an appendix for the convenience of the reviewers). Such submissions should not be an abridge= d version of an existing journal article (see item 1) although pre-submiss= ion Arxiv preprints are permitted. These submissions will be adjudicated for both a talk and publication in the conference proceedings. 3. Software Demonstrations should be submitted in the format of an Extended Abstract (1-2 pages) giving the program committee enough information to assess the content of the demonstration. We are particularly interested = in software that makes category theory research easier, or uses category theoretic ideas to improve software in other domains. Extended abstracts and conference papers should be prepared with LaTeX. For conference papers please use the EPTCS style files available at < http://style.eptcs.org>.

IMPORTANT DATES The following dates are all in 2022, and Anywhere On Earth. - Submission Deadline: Monday 9 May - Author Notification: Tuesday 7 June - Camera-ready version due: Tuesday 28 June - Adjoint School: Monday 11 to Friday 15 July - Main Conference: Monday 18 to Friday 22 July CONFERENCE FORMAT We hope to run the conference as a hybrid event with talks recorded or streamed for remote participation. However, due to the state of the pandemic, the possibility of in-person attendance is not yet confirmed. Please be mindful of changing conditions when booking travel or hotel accommodations. FINANCIAL SUPPORT Limited financial support will be available. Please contact the organisers for more information.
