Our guest speaker is Newsnight’s Economics Editor, Paul Mason. Paul took over from Stephanie Flanders after several years as Business & Industry Correspondent. He sums up his own agenda as ‘profit, peopleand planet.’ His analysis of economic trends and political developments is always accessible to a wide audience, without ‘dumbing down’ or patronising the viewer. Paul started out his career as Deputy Editor of Computer Weekly and has since won the Workworld Business Journalist and Wincott awards for his China reports, and the Diageo African Business Reporting Award for his acclaimed film on how mobile phones are changing the continent.
