This Conference proceeding will be published by Springer in the journal Few-Body Systems 000000745 520__ $$aThe Belle II experiment at the asymmetric e^+ e^− SuperKEKB collider will start its operation in 2018 and will collect the data at the integrated luminosity of 50ab^−1 . This high luminosity will shed light on new physics beyond the Standard Model via high precision measurements of heavy flavor decays and searches for rare signal events. In this work, we present the status of SuperKEKB and Belle II detector construction. The expected sensitivity to new physics of the Belle II data set will also be discussed. 000000745 6531_ $$aBelle II, SuperKEKB, CP Violation, Lepton Flavor Violation, Rare B Decays 000000745 8560_ $$fkavita.lalwani@desy.de 000000745 8564_ $$uhttps://docs.belle2.org/record/745/files/BELLE2-CONF-PROC-2017-035.pdf 000000745 8564_ $$uhttps://docs.belle2.org/record/745/files/BELLE2-CONF-PROC-2017-035.gif?subformat=icon$$xicon 000000745 8564_ $$uhttps://docs.belle2.org/record/745/files/BELLE2-CONF-PROC-2017-035.gif?subformat=icon-700$$xicon-700
