At this meeting, powerful new images and spectroscopy of AGB stars were presented. Theoretical models have advanced, and we are learning more from studies of the pre-solar grains isolated from meteorites.

We suggest that several mass loss mechanisms may be operating in AGB stars: current images imply both spherical winds and highly flattened outflows. There are good arguments that in some cases, a companion may be critical in driving the final outflow. In the near future, a number of extremely powerful new instruments and techniques will be available that will lead to a much deeper understanding of these systems.
