Welcome to Fortune Live: a new weekly business show hosted by assistant managing editor Leigh Gallagher. The show will start streaming on this page at 3pm Eastern time.

Today’s opening roundtable features senior editor-at-large Shawn Tully and senior editor Andrew Nusca unpacking how the falling Euro is impacting the global economy and the Box IPO.

Next, writer Erin Griffith tells us about unicorns of the business world, the premise of the cover story she co-wrote with colleague Dan Primack.

After that, we go inside Rent the Runway, the company trying to become the Uber of fashion.

For this week’s Exchange interview, we talk to Marriott CEO Arne Sorenson about how the hotel chain is vying for millennial customers in the age of Airbnb.

Sue Callaway, senior editor, Automotive, for Time Inc. shreds asphalt in the new MacLaren 650s.

Plus: Assistant managing editor Brian O’Keefe and writer-reporter Chris Matthews join us for a look at how plunging oil is sending shockwaves across markets everywhere

The full show and excerpts will be available to watch on-demand after it streams live.
