About this event

From the copper in Mesopotamian ploughs to the silicon in our smartphones, trading networks have evolved over millennia to fulfil the distinctly human need to buy and sell. Amid an unprecedented volume of trade, fractures in the global order and a challenging future, Material World bestseller Ed Conway tells an extraordinary story through three products: bread, cloth and cars. In Trade World the Sky News economics editor blends history with his inside access to show us what’s behind what we buy.
