Swansea Bay tidal lagoon proposal, Trends to come in 2017
A UK government-commissioned review backs the Swansea Tidal Lagoon project. Plus a look ahead to what to expect in 2017.
The UK government-commissioned Hendry review of tidal lagoons has backed the Swansea Bay project - Brian talks to Roger Evans, chair of the Tidal Lagoon Industry Advisory Group, about his hopes for the supply chain and the economy of south-west of Wales. He also talks to global energy lawyer Michelle Davies to get her perspective. 2016 was busy for the business world and that's set to continue this year. Brian and guests discuss what trends we can expect, from artificial intelligence to the so-called "gig" economy. Brian also hears about a project aiming to help would-entrepreneurs set up shop in the evening, and the owner of our business of the week decided to buy a franchise to get her dreams of self-employment off the ground.
