KEKB is an asymmetric energy B factory with the highest luminosity in
the world. The Belle group at KEKB has played an important role in
establishing the Standard Model by precise test of Kobayashi-Maskawa
model of quark mixing and CP violation in the various aspects
together with BaBar. If new physics exists at TeV energy scale, it
is quite conceivable that deviations from the predictions of the
Standard Model will be observed in the decays of heavy flavors such
as B, D and tau. By increasing the luminosity of KEKB by a factor of
~50, the flavor physics will enter a new era of precision
measurements in which the possibility of detecting new physics
effects will be greatly improved. For this purpose, upgrade of KEK
to SuperKEKB is planned at KEK. This program can provide an excellent
opportunity to examine the fundamental properties of CP violation and
flavor mixing in new physics. In this talk, physics program and
design of the machine and the detector will be reviewed. Especially,
our strategy to reach the luminosity close to 10^36 will be presented
in detail.
