Business Matters: Is Samsung trying to buy BlackBerry? 15 Jan 14

Thu, 15 Jan 15

Rumours1 swirl2 that Samsung is trying to buy BlackBerry. Both companies have issued forms of denials but we discuss whether it would be a good move for the smartphone companies. The charity Survival International says people are being forcibly evicted3 from their homes in the Kanha Tiger Reserve in India. Kanha in Madhya Pradhesh was where Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book was set. We hear from Dr Jo Woodman who is campaigning on behalf of the tribespeople. Africa is set to enter its first ever team into the Tour de France. MTN-Qhubeka's team principle, the former Olympic cyclist Douglas Ryder, tells us he's excited about the team's prospects4. Joining Roger Hearing on Business Matters tonight are Peter Morici from the University of Maryland in the US and Lily Kuo of Quartz5 magazine in Hong Kong. They'll be discussing all of these stories as well as entrepreneurship in their countries.
