US intelligence 'incidentally' picked up communications from Trump's team
The Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Devin Nunes, said that US intelligence agencies might have 'incidentally' captured communications from Trump's transitional team following his election. Although, this doesn't back up claims that the Obama administration was behind the 'wiretapping'. To discuss this, Share Radio's Ed Bowsher was joined by Chris Gilson, Managing Editor of USAPP, the US Centre's daily blog on US politics at the London School of Economics.

Why are there so few women working in the UK tech sector? Nigel Slater from KPMG explains
Women make up nearly half of the UK workforce, but this number drops to just a fifth when it comes to the technology sector. The Government's recent green paper on industrial strategy showed that more technical education is needed to boost diversity in the sector. Last week, financial advisory firm KPMG launched IT's Her Future, a campaign aimed at encouraging more women to consider a career in technology. Share Radio's Sara Macham spoke to Nigel Slater, KPMG's head of management consultancy.

Could scrapping the US's specialist worker visa scheme harm its competitiveness?
While Donald Trump's controversial travel ban continues to be blocked by courts, there's one visa category he might successfully target - the tech industry-favoured H-1-B. The visa, designed for specialist workers, has come under fire for its use by foreign outsourcing firms within the US. But CEO of US-based cyber security firm Vectra Networks, Hitesh Sheth, warns scrapping the whole visa programme could hurt competitiveness in the US. Mr Sheth spoke with Share Radio's Peta Fuller about the issue.
