If you have a question about this talk, please contact Alexander Mitov.

I will show that electroweak corrections in high center of mass collisions become increasingly important, and that fixed order perturbation theory breaks down for center of mass energies of a few TeV. This is due to large logarithms that grow with the center of mass energy. I will present results that resum the leading logarithms, and show that the resummation gives important numerical differences to fixed order calculations.
