US President Donald Trump and China's President Xi are set to meet in Florida.

China's President Xi is set to land in the US for talks with his counterpart Donald Trump. US economist Alan Tonelson tells us what he thinks might be on the agenda for the two leaders.

Also on the programme, the gender pay gap remains a concern around the world, but could Iceland have found the answer to rectifying pay inequality?
Journalist Lára Hilmarsdóttir joins us from Reykjavik to explain measures the country's law makers are considering there.

You have heard of fake news, but what about fake reviews? We hear about the bizarre row between the two cities competing to host the 2024 Olympic Games, Paris and Los Angeles, which is all about potentially fake Facebook likes. Author Ben Parr, who has written on internet manipulation marketing techniques, will try and untangle the tale for us.

The BBC's Roger Hearing will be joined throughout the programme from by August Turak, entrepreneur and author of The Business Secrets of Trappist Monks. And by Sushma Ramachandran, formerly chief business correspondent for the Hindustan Times newspaper. They'll also be joined by the BBC's Rahul Tandon.
