The view from the top of business. Presented by Evan Davis, The Bottom Line cuts through confusion, statistics and spin to present a clearer view of the business world, through discussion with people running leading and emerging companies. The programme is broadcast first on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4 and later on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ World Service Radio, ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ World News TV and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ News Channel TV.
Evan and his panel debate the big issue of the moment: capitalism, its virtues and vices. Across the media it's associated with negative words like 'crisis' and 'crony'. So how would Evan's executive guests redesign and rebrand capitalism? They also discuss peaking - just when do you reach your prime in business?
Joining Evan in the studio are: Keith Clarke, former chief executive and now director of sustainability at civil engineering and design consultancy Atkins; entrepreneur and investor Deborah Meaden; Heather Killen, co-founder of private equity and corporate finance advisory boutique Hemisphere Capital.
