Abstract
The 17th edition of the international workshop on top quark physics featured a diverse set of outstanding results. This note is an attempt to summarize the workshop from the experimental perspective and suggest ways forward for the future investigations. As it has not been possible to touch upon every single physics analysis in this note, interested reader are referred to individual proceedings for details.

Report
Nice proceedings that I am happy to see published.
I have some suggestions below to clarify the text.
- Section 1:
* The large mass of *the* top quark
* CERN LHC: I guess ‘LHC’ should be defined
* I am not sure I fully understand the sentence: “while additional parameters …” . I think additional SM parameters can be extracted from top quark measurements but this is also not always the case.
* beginning of the 3rd paragraph: the large ttbar cross section, sigma_ttbar
* ‘for the additional measurements’ : I don’t think I understand what is meant here. Probably the text should be clarified
* ‘It was the first to measure’ -> to be measured
* a measurementS: remove the S
* ‘providing the largest ever amount of data’: I think thinking of the b-factory , I don’t think the status is fully true
- Section 3:
* and *are* used to extract SM parameters
* 2nd paragraph, typo: ‘topnium’
* 3nd paragraph: ‘that in part of the phase space …’ : I think there is something missing in this sentence
Section 4:
* the possibility to combination -> to combine
* been found for the tWZ production: I would remove ‘the’ here
Caption of Fig 3:
* for compared with: I guess you meant : to be compared with ?
Section 6:
* The top quark physics -> Top quark physics
* theory and experimentS
