Recently, a new mechanism to generate a naturally small electroweak scale has been proposed. This is based on the idea that a dynamical evolution during the early universe can drive the Higgs mass to a value much smaller than the UV cutoff of the SM. In this talk I will present this idea, its explicit realizations, potential problems, and experimental consequences..
