The Foundations of Future Communication Systems (FFCS) conference brought together leading researchers from information theory, quantum communication, molecular communication, semantic communication, and secure network design to explore the fundamental principles shaping next-generation communication systems. The event serves as a platform for interdisciplinary exchange, bridging classical Shannon theory, post-Shannon paradigms, quantum information science, and emerging physically grounded communication models. This report compiles the abstracts of all invited talks, contributed presentations, and poster contributions presented at FFCS. The collected works reflect the breadth of contemporary research directions, including identification-based communication, entanglement-assisted networks, semantic and goal-oriented communication, coding for molecular and nanoscale systems, secure authentication mechanisms, and information-theoretic limits of novel physical-layer architectures. A central theme of the conference was the re-examination of foundational limits under realistic physical, architectural, and security constraints. Many contributions move beyond traditional rate-centric perspectives and instead investigate reliability, identification, semantics, resource efficiency, and trust in complex and heterogeneous networks. The inclusion of poster abstracts further highlights emerging ideas, early-stage research results, and innovative cross-disciplinary approaches that contribute to shaping future communication paradigms. By documenting the intellectual landscape presented at FFCS, this report aims to provide a structured overview of current research frontiers and to stimulate continued collaboration across theoretical and experimental domains.
