Description
We report on the status and plan of the upgrade of the KEK
B-factory accelerator, SuperKEKB, with the goal of instantaneous
luminosity of $8 \times 10^{35}$ cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$, which is
about 40 times higher than current KEKB. Together with the
accelerator, the Belle detector will be upgraded as well ("Belle II"),
with significant improvements to increase its background tolerance as
well as improving its physics performance. The prospects of
physics achievements at SuperKEKB and Belle II are also reported.
