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.

Airbus A380 Super Jumbo
In this week's programme...
Dogfight
This week In Business reports on the war in the air ... the battle of the plane-makers.
After one hundred years of flying, two huge firms dominate the commercial aircraft industry: Boeing of the United States, and the European 'upstart' Airbus (which now has half the global market).
The two plane makers are pinning their hopes on a radically different vision of future of flying: a great big Airbus superJumbo versus the fuel efficient, but smaller, point-to-point 7E7 from Boeing.
Airbus says its superJumbo is the way people want to fly: Boeing says the future is all about smaller planes flying point-to-point. Both companies can鈥檛 possibly win the huge orders they are hoping for.
Meanwhile, for good measure, Boeing and Airbus have also embarked on a legal dispute about subsidies. Both air giants are at odds about the huge government subsidies the other side gets.
