| Summary:

This document presents a summary of the 2023 Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline
Atom Interferometry Workshop hosted by CERN. The workshop brought together
experts from around the world to discuss the exciting developments in
large-scale atom interferometer (AI) prototypes and their potential for
detecting ultralight dark matter and gravitational waves. The primary objective
of the workshop was to lay the groundwork for an international TVLBAI
proto-collaboration. This collaboration aims to unite researchers from
different institutions to strategize and secure funding for terrestrial
large-scale AI projects. The ultimate goal is to create a roadmap detailing the
design and technology choices for one or more km-scale detectors, which will be
operational in the mid-2030s. The key sections of this report present the
physics case and technical challenges, together with a comprehensive overview
of the discussions at the workshop together with the main conclusions.
