Social networking websites, exotic fruit drinks, eco-friendly products – these are some of the hottest business trends right now and hungry entrepreneurs want a piece of the action. But how?

FORTUNE HUNTERS, a new show airing Saturdays at 6:30 a.m. ET and 11:00 p.m. ET (repeats Sundays at 1:30 p.m. ET and at 4:30 p.m. ET) beginning January 12, will explore the latest money-making trends and introduce viewers to the people who are cashing in now.

Created by Dianne Buckner, current host of DRAGONS’ DEN and long-time host of CBC NEWS: VENTURE, the program will showcase today’s top business trends and how those trends fit into the global economy, as well as how Canadians could cash in on potential business opportunities right here at home.

Every week the show is divided into three segments: in the first, Buckner introduces a trend for the week and profiles a Canadian company – a Fortune Hunter – attempting to cash in on that trend. The second segment features interviews with business trend experts who will analyze the trend of the week and assess its business viability. Some of our celebrity experts include reno king Mike Holmes, Kevin O’Leary and Arlene Dickinson from Dragons’ Den, and fitness guru and entrepreneur Hal Johnson. The final segment – My First Million – profiles celebrities of the business world and their secrets to success. From the brain behind Goodlife Fitness, to the frank founder of Le Chateau, to the icon Wallace McCain of McCain Foods, these business gurus reveal their struggles to make it to the top and provide tips on how to get there.

You can catch FORTUNE HUNTERS on CBC’s News Express service at Pearson International Airport in Toronto, Ottawa International Airport and Vancouver International Airport. Plus, starting in March you can watch FORTUNE HUNTERS in flight on Air Canada.
