Abstract: We live in a world of uncertainty and interdependent crises, marked by climate disruption, biodiversity loss and soil depletion, geopolitical tensions and the rarefaction of natural resources, all mainly caused by the impact of human activity. As of 2025, seven of the nine planetary boundaries have been crossed. The reality of this epoch, the Anthropocene, has consequences for all. It raises major issues for individuals but also companies, who must adapt to an environment in constant mutation where traditional approaches are no longer sufficient to ensure perennity. It also engages academics from fields spanning natural, social and management sciences, who study the Anthropocene from their different research lenses. One thing is certain: the Anthropocene affects us all and we must build solutions together to address its challenges.The teaching and research chair of emlyon business school and Carbone 4 "Strategy in the Anthropocene" aims to do just that: bring technical expertise from across academia, business and industry to encourage collaboration and innovation and develop a strategic thinking framework for companies to address such crucial issues. It is in this context that we have decided to bring together researchers and business leaders for a two-day workshop to foster the development of new ideas and discussions grounded in the latest research and aligned with business needs.
