The LHC experiments have searched for and excluded many proposed
Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) theories. However, there are many scenarios
where LHC has little or no sensitivity.
Electron-positron colliders offers a different avenue for searches for such
phenomena.
In this talk, we will review the expectations for searches
for number of BSM models
at
the International Linear Collider (ILC).
We will discuss new Higgs-like scalars, indirect
BSM via
Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) fits, mono-photons,
and
SUSY in strongly or moderately compressed
models.
