Toronto-based corporate training company CultureAlly has been named No. 41 on The Globe and Mail's 2026 list of Canada's Top Growing Companies, following a 719% revenue increase from 2022 to 2025. The company also secured the No. 2 position in the Educational Services category, according to the annual ranking released by the national newspaper.
Founded in 2021, CultureAlly has rapidly expanded its reach, working with more than 1,000 organizations and delivering training to over 100,000 learners across the United States, Canada, and internationally. Its offerings include corporate training, eLearning, and leadership development, with a focus on soft skills, communication, and workplace culture.
The ranking, published in the October issue of Report on Business magazine and available online, underscores the growing demand for workplace learning solutions that address the challenges affecting how teams collaborate. For employers grappling with hybrid work, generational shifts, and evolving employee expectations, CultureAlly's growth signals that investment in soft skills and leadership development is increasingly seen as a business imperative, not a discretionary expense.
"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."
The company's growth has been fueled by deepening relationships with clients. Many organizations that initially engaged CultureAlly for a single training need have returned with new challenges, leading to longer partnerships and broader work across workplace communication, leadership, and soft skills development. This pattern suggests that companies are moving beyond one-off training sessions and toward sustained culture-building efforts.
Andrew Saunders, president and CEO of The Globe and Mail, praised the companies on the list: "Each of these organizations has shown an extraordinary ability to adapt, innovate and grow amid ongoing change." His comments reflect the broader economic context in which businesses must navigate uncertainty while investing in their people.
For the corporate training industry, CultureAlly's recognition highlights the competitive advantage that comes from addressing the human side of work. As automation and digital transformation reshape job roles, skills such as communication, empathy, and leadership are becoming differentiators for organizations seeking to retain talent and maintain productivity. CultureAlly's 719% growth over three years illustrates that this demand is not fleeting.
