Episode Description

The three largest share listings ever are about to happen. SpaceX, Anthropic and OpenAI are set to sell their shares to the public, and each will be valued at one trillion dollars or more.

- Dominic O’Connell, Times columnist and Times Radio business reporter


Guests:

  •  Maike Currie, VP of personal finance at PensionBee
