We began with a pattern rather than a plan. Across Canada, people were navigating systems that were not built with their context in mind, where access required explanation and connection took extra effort. So they built their own networks instead, quietly, off to the side of the official ones.
We set out to be the infrastructure for that second network. To make what people already carry privately become visible, and to move connection from a workaround to something you can build on.
The platforms came one at a time, and each one is built to hand off to the next. Wellness leads to community, community to business, business to opportunity. Most services break that chain. We are built to hold it.
We are not built for one culture. We are built with Caribbean and Black Canadian communities in mind first, and we are open to everyone. Out of many, one people.
About Culturis
We are a Canadian cultural infrastructure network, based in Ottawa and Toronto. We build and run a connected ecosystem of platforms that improve access, visibility and opportunity through culture.
InnaPace is a wellness platform that connects people to culturally aligned therapists, trainers and wellness professionals, matched on lived experience rather than availability alone. FitnessBeach brings people together through movement, travel and shared experience, beyond the screen. Mentioned is a business directory where businesses are found, recommended and backed through community connection instead of ratings from strangers, with a funding match that shows an owner what they can reach.
We work with partners, sponsors and organizations who want to build inside a culturally grounded system.

Across the network
Businesses that have named this one as a supplier, contractor or partner, and the articles it appears in.
Mention vs recommendation: A mention is one business naming another it works with: a supplier, a contractor, a partner. It states a relationship, not an opinion, and the business named can confirm it. A recommendation is one business speaking as a customer. It has bought from this business or been served by it, and it is saying what it would go back for. Both are positive only.
This business hasn’t been mentioned yet. Mentions show here when another business names it as a supplier, contractor or partner, or when it appears in an advice piece.
