The program's trademark is its ability to take audiences behind the scenes.
Venture also takes a step back from the news on the business pages.
It asks hard questions about the way business is done, and the way companies are managed. Already this season, Venture has tackled the issue of mergers, pointing out that, as much as the business world loves them, the majority of mergers fail. And we've raised the issue of libel chill on Bay Street, revealing that it's holding financial analysts back from making negative comments on the companies they are analyzing. Venture has won numerous awards since it began in 1984. This season, Venture won a Gemini award for Best Information Segment.
