Huawei boss: The US can't crush us

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

Ren Zhengfei, the Chinese technology company's reclusive founder, speaks exclusively to the BBC following weeks of news headlines over allegations that the company is spying. We get analysis from our Asia business correspondent Karishma Vaswani. Japanese carmaker Honda is set to announce it's closing its plant in Swindon in the UK. We ask Christian Stadler, global car industry specialist at Warwick Business School, what this means for the future of Britain's automotive industry. And what has prompted several US presidential candidates to come out in favour of increasing taxes? Nigel Cassidy is joined throughout the programme by management consultant and broadcaster Simon Littlewood in Singapore, and Rhonda Vonshay-Sharpe, founder of think tank The Women's Institute for Science, Equity and Race, in Richmond, Virginia.
