Rurallo is a community hub and newsletter dedicated to the often-overlooked innovators outside the big city centers. In Canada, the rural economy is a powerhouse of resilience, and Rurallo is where its stories are told.

Bridging the Gap Between Rural Ingenuity and Global Opportunity
In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, Canada’s rural valleys are often overlooked by big-tech hubs. At Sharviy Inc., we see things differently. We see a powerhouse of resilience, a hub of maker culture, and a laboratory for local innovation. Rurallo is our dedicated program designed to amplify the rural spirit through technology, community, and strategic connectivity.
The Vision: Beyond “Small Town” Thinking
Rural Canada isn’t just a location; it’s an economic engine fueled by artisans, builders, and neighbors solving local problems with grit. Rurallo was created to ensure that these communities are not just participants in the 2026 economy, but leaders of it. We provide the “Digital Core” that allows a workshop in the valley to reach a customer in London or a developer in California.
The Three Strategic Pillars of Rurallo
1. Rural Innovation & Problem Solving
We spotlight the “MacGyvers” of the rural economy. From agricultural tech adaptations to localized logistics solutions, Rurallo provides the platform for neighbors to share how they are solving complex problems with limited resources.
The Goal: To turn local solutions into scalable business models.
2. The Maker Economy Spotlight
The artisans and builders among us are the backbone of local resilience. Rurallo creates a “Digital Marketplace of Ideas,” spotlighting the craftsmanship of rural makers and providing them with the technological tools (e.g., SharviyOne integration) to manage inventory, sales, and global shipping without leaving their post code.
3. Valley Resilience & Social Support
Economic seasons change, but a connected community is an unbreakable one. Rurallo fosters “Valley Resilience” by facilitating peer-to-peer mentorship and local investment networks. We believe that when one rural business scales, the entire valley rises.
What We Deliver
The Rurallo Intelligence Briefing (Substack)
A weekly newsletter dedicated to the stories, strategies, and statistics of the rural economy. We don’t just talk about “business”—we talk about the people behind the products and the technology making their growth possible.
The Maker Hub
A digital community center where rural entrepreneurs can access Sharviy’s “Strategy Roadmaps” tailored specifically for the challenges of operating outside major urban centers (e.g., bandwidth limitations, supply chain distance, and local labor markets).
Strategic Connectivity
Leveraging Sharviy’s global hubs in the UK and Africa, Rurallo connects Canadian rural makers with international distributors and like-minded innovators across the Atlantic.
“Rurallo is personal to our mission. Having spent more than 30 years building equity and opportunity, I know that innovation doesn’t just happen in glass towers in Silicon Valley. It happens in the valleys of Canada, in the small workshops, and in the minds of people who know how to build things that last. Rurallo is about giving those people the enterprise-grade tools they deserve.”
– Glenn Paterson, VP – Canada, Sharviy Inc
