OU/BBC Co-pro The Bottom Line returns for new series

A new eight-part series of the OU/BBC collaboration The Bottom Line, supported by an academic consultant from the Business School, begins this month airing on BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds.

OU honorary graduate Evan Davis (pictured) presents this business conversation show and discusses the big issues with business leaders from Britain and around the world.
