Mo Abudu, Nigeria's Oprah Winfrey, speaks about the business of launching a new cable tv network, Ebony Life TV, a network that's aimed at youth viewers and is now going out across Africa. And we hear from a major advertising agency. Lynn Madeley, South Africa CEO of Havas describes the massive commercial potential that the African continent now offers. Also we speak to Jamal Edwards. He's a 22 year old millionaire whose online network, SBTV - launched when he was just 15 - may just represent the future face of youth music and entertainment broadcasting in Britain.
