|  | | | | 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.

Professor Profit
In Business looks at how universities are being challenged to sweat their assets - by turning academic good ideas into real life companies and patents.
Peter Day asks if the strategy is really working to the benefit of both the British economy and the universities' balance sheets.
