Company Casebook: Lightvert
Now here's a thing.... Giant adverts the size of skyscrapers? Which you see for just a few seconds .. before they disappear.. a bit like the Cheshire Cat. Sounds like something out of a sci fi movie, but in fact it's already a reality and on this week's Company Casebook Linda Lewis goes behind the scenes at Lightvert, a digital 'out of home' media technology firm which has developed a way of projecting giant advertisements onto the side of buildings for just a few moments, before they disappear from your vision. You don't need special glasses. You SEE them with the naked eye. Lightvert developed the technology with the aid of a grant from Innovate UK and now they're crowdfunding.

Company Casebook: Peer-to-peer car rental business Turo
Have you ever thought about the speed with which cars depreciate in value and how little they're used for a major asset? If so, you'll immediately see the logic behind the latest sharing economy business model which has just arrived in Britain. It's a peer-to-peer car rental business called Turo - car owners rent out their cars to travellers, with Turo taking a percentage of the proceeds. Their CEO and some of his top team spoke to Share Radio's Linda Lewis on Company Casebook this week, explaining why they've chosen the UK as their first big expansion after North America and more.
