The Economist - Channel
The Economist videos give authoritative insight and opinion on international news, politics, business, finance, science, technology and the connections between them. Our latest documentary series is Passport, an original travel series for the intellectually and culturally curious, exploring some of the most exciting cities in the world. The insiders’ guide to each city follows at the shoulder of three local characters as they reveal the experiences and places not covered in the guidebooks. We're also producing The Disrupters, an original series exploring how major industries—from music and cars to hospitality—are currently being disrupted by the latest wave of digital innovation. As well as enjoying privileged access into the world biggest tech start ups we show how industry giants respond when faced with such tech-driven innovation—do they adapt—or die? Subscribe to our channel to be among the first to see the new films in the series when we post them.
