On today's programme, we look at how the Shenzhen-Hong Kong-Guangzhou cluster has retained its crown as the world's top innovation hub for a second straight year in the latest Global Innovation Index, before hearing how researchers at HKUST have developed a new testing platform that can bring lab-grade genetic testing out of the laboratory and into the home in around 30 minutes. We then turn to the United Nations, where the General Assembly has backed a resolution to adopt a new world map that makes Africa bigger while shrinking North America and Europe, and ask what this symbolic shift could mean for how we see the world.
