CultureAlly, a corporate training and workplace learning company, has been ranked No. 41 on The Globe and Mail's 2026 list of Canada's Top Growing Companies, following a remarkable 719% revenue growth from 2022 to 2025. The company also secured the No. 2 position in the Educational Services category, highlighting its rapid ascent in the competitive landscape of professional development and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) training.
Founded in 2021, CultureAlly has quickly established itself as a key player in the corporate training sector, working with more than 1,000 organizations and reaching over 100,000 learners across the United States, Canada, and internationally. Its offerings include corporate training, eLearning, leadership development, coaching, and consulting, all aimed at strengthening soft skills, communication, and leadership while addressing workplace challenges that affect team dynamics.
"Seeing CultureAlly at No. 41 is a pretty incredible moment for us," said Ashley Kelly, founder and CEO of CultureAlly. "We started this company five years ago, and I'm proud of the team whose hard work brought us here. What excites me now is how much more we can do with the organizations that trust us. Stronger workplace cultures help people do their best work, and that shows up in how a business performs. That's the kind of impact we want to keep growing." Kelly's comments underscore the broader value proposition of DEI training: that inclusive cultures are not just ethical imperatives but drivers of business success.
The recognition comes as organizations increasingly prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, spurred by shifting social expectations and research linking diverse teams to better decision-making and innovation. CultureAlly's growth trajectory suggests that companies are investing in long-term cultural transformation rather than one-off training sessions. According to the press release, clients that first engaged CultureAlly for a single training need have returned with new challenges, leading to longer relationships and broader work across workplace communication, leadership, and soft skills development. This pattern indicates a sustained demand for comprehensive DEI strategies.
Andrew Saunders, president and CEO of The Globe and Mail, praised the honorees: "Each of these organizations has shown an extraordinary ability to adapt, innovate and grow amid ongoing change." The complete 2026 ranking and editorial coverage are available in the October issue of Report on Business magazine and online.

As businesses face evolving workforce expectations and global challenges, the demand for effective diversity and inclusion strategies is likely to grow. CultureAlly's success story may inspire other entrepreneurs and investors to focus on solutions that foster inclusive workplaces, ultimately benefiting employees, organizations, and the broader economy.
