Can London maintain a leading position in the buzzing financial tech sector after Britain leaves the European Union? We get the view of Taavet Hinrikus, founder of TransferWise, and Eileen Burbidge, the UK government special envoy to the fintech industry. Plus we find out why free public WiFi is still quite hard to find in Germany, and we meet the first graduates of the Code Your Future programming course for refugees. Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, with Leo Kelion from BBC Online, and special guest Mary-Ann Russon from International Business Times UK.
