Recent years have seen spectacular progresses in the development of innovative acceleration methods going beyond conventional radio frequency (RF) accelerating structures. These novel developments are at the interface of laser, plasma and accelerator physics and may potentially lead to much more compact and economical accelerator facilities. In this context a new Research Infrastructure named “EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB” has been recently funded by the Italian Minister of Research and INFN. In its final configuration it will equip LNF with a multi-disciplinary user-facility, based on a soft X-ray Free Electron Laser (FEL) driven by a ~1 GeV compact electron accelerator. This fundamental goal will be achieved by using a high gradient plasma accelerator module excited by a driving laser or particle beam. In this talk we will introduce the basic concepts of plasma acceleration techniques and will report about the recent progresses on the going R&D for the EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB project. Opportunities and perspectives for the international accelerator and FEL communities will be also emphasized.
