This is an informal announcement of results to be described and proved in detail in a paper to appear. We give various results on the structure of approximate subgroups in linear groups such as $\SL_n(k)$. For example, generalising a result of Helfgott (who handled the cases $n = 2$ and 3), we show that any approximate subgroup of $\SL_n(\F_q)$ which generates the group must be either very small or else nearly all of $\SL_n(\F_q)$. The argument is valid for all Chevalley groups $G(\F_q)$.
