President Trump confirms big tariffs are being imposed on goods coming into the US from Mexico, Canada, and China. We'll hear from businesses in Canada and Mexico on their response. We hear the story of one family's return to their home following the Los Angeles wildfires. David Brancaccio, a journalist with our US partner Marketplace, who bought a house just a few months ago and was burnt down by the California firestorms earlier this month. India’s finance minister will be presenting the country’s annual budget in a few hours’ time, outlining the government’s spending plans for the coming year. Throughout the program, we will be joined by two guests on opposite sides of the world: Andy Uhler, Journalism Fellow at the Energy Institute at The University of Texas, who's in Austin, and Nga Pham, a journalist in Taipei in Taiwan.

  • What excites me most about the UK tech landscape over the next five years is not tech in itself,

  • but the application of tech across the economy.

  • It's really exciting.

  • Tech is driving change and innovation.

  • Welcome to the United Kingdom, where the brightest tech innovators reshaping our world are celebrated.

  • This year the Department for Business

  • and Trade are spotlighting global trailblazing entrepreneurs through the Unicorn Kingdom Pathfinder Awards.

  • John Edwards is the Director for Investment and one of the judges for the awards.

  • The Department of Business and Trade sees helping investors as its core mission.

  • We help find things that they can invest in, so create a market.

  • We can help them with the practical things that they need, whether it's planning,

  • finding an office, getting the visas, getting the finance R and D support that they need.

  • And then we see this as a long term project and a long term support mechanism.

  • So after they've landed, if there are things that they still need help with, we can help them with that.

  • What was so special about being a judge

  • at the Unicorn Kingdom Pathfinder Awards was the opportunity to see some of these companies right there beginning their journey

  • into the UK market

  • and investing in the uk.
