We try to make ear-grabbing programmes about the whole world of work, public and private, from vast corporations to modest volunteers.
In Business is all about change. New ways of work and new technologies are challenging most of the assumptions by which organisations have been run for the last 100 years. We try to report on ideas coming over the horizon, just before they start being talked about. We hope it is an exhilarating ride.

Entrepreneurs
Entrepreneurs are people who start businesses from scratch. They are a rare breed who create jobs, build the future, and make a fortune as well.
America is full of them, it was created by them: but that sort of thing doesn't really happen in Britain does it? Conventional wisdom says no. But it does. It's happening more.
No longer do the best and the brightest want to go and work for a big company and inch their way up the corporate ladder. They want to do it for themselves. We find out what everyone can learn from a handful of the British entrepreneurs who are still only in their 20s.
