Business Zone is not first class, and any standard class ticket is valid with a Business Zone supplement, which can be purchased with your ticket (if booking at a station) or simply upgraded onboard. On off-peak services, the Business Zone supplement is just £10.
You will need to pay a peak supplement to use the Business Zone, between London and Birmingham, on silver trains which arrive into London before 1000 and depart London between 1600 and 1900 on a weekday
