The meeting of the European Network on Physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) was held in SISSA, Trieste, on 24-27 February 1999. It was the third meeting of the Network after those of Corfu (1998) and Valencia (1997). Its main purpose was the mid-term review of the Network, with representatives of the European Commission. There was also a scientific workshop, where the participants, in particular young post-docs and PhD students, presented a number of talks. The main topics that were discussed include the unification of fundamental forces including gravity, strings and superstrings, electroweak symmetry breaking, Higgs physics and supersymmetry, as well as neutrino physics. The objectives of the BSM Network is to broaden, coordinate and further strengthen the current collaboration amongst a group of European centers working in many aspects of "Physics Beyond the Standard Model". It is supported by the European Union under the Training and Mobility of Researchers programme (contract ERBFMRX-CT96-0090) for the period 1996-2000 , and involves 11 participant institutions established in 8 European countries (France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and United Kingdom). Further information can be found in the Network homepage.
