World Class Britain is a project to identify everything that is genuinely excellent ('world class') in Britain, and what we can learn from them.
We feature world-leading businesses - from international corporations to specialist ventures in remote shires - and everything else that contributes to the rich tapestry of Britain’s global contribution. That means cultural, scientific, sporting and humanitarian contributions - whatever British-based activity is leading or changing the world.
World Class Britain is a place to hear and learn from and about the best. Through features, guest comments, podcasts and analysis, we look at the nature of success in Britain.
Above all, World Class Britain is a community and a catalyst to spark informed debate about Britain’s strengths as a nation in the 21st century.
There is, admittedly, an irony here - all this talk of success is rather un-British. Don't look here for failure, embarrassment, gaffs, shame, lamentation and complaint. There is enough of that in the British media. We offer positive, evidence-based journalism. Enjoy!
