Front Cover: Plasma methods contribute significantly to the economic prosperity of industrialized societies. In 2013 the European Union Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007‐2013) awarded a major project called "PlasmaShape" to the Leibniz Institute for Plasma Science and Technology (INP) in Greifswald, Germany. During PlasmaShape, scientists and young researchers from all over the world met in workshops and two scientific events named “Future in Plasma Science” to discuss and develop new strategic areas in plasma science. As a tangible goal and result of PlasmaShape, a consensus paper identifies the importance of plasma science and technology, initially until 2030. To underpin the consensus paper, theme‐specific white papers show in more detail the scientific challenges in plasma research.
