Venture 2.0 (Fortune Hunters) coming to CBC

Anyone remember Venture? The CBC show that served as a business how-to and all too often how-not-to show for entrepreneurs was axed at the end of last season after 22 years on the air. It's pseudo replacement Fortune Hunters premeirs January 12. According to the show's web site:
FORTUNE HUNTERS is Canada’s only show on the trail of hot trends.

This exciting new business program looks at “trends” – the powerful shifts in human behaviour and in economic activity that define today’s world – through the lens of moneymaking. Each and every week we’ll meet entrepreneurs who are hunting their fortune by creating companies and trying to cash in on popular trends.

Hosted by Dianne Buckner of Dragons’ Den, FORTUNE HUNTERS also includes candid conversations with business experts on the latest trends.
Plus, in our power profile MY FIRST MILLION segment, we’ll reveal the secrets of success from business big shots like the founders of Booster Juice, Le Chateau and McCain’s.


The program launches Jan. 12 at 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT for those of you who don't like math.)
