CultureMesh

CultureMesh, a social networking platform, connects people via a common nation, region, city, or language, at any location on the globe.

At CultureMesh, they are creating the first unified social networking platform for international (and intra-national) diaspora populations. Though international and in-country diasporas number in the hundreds of millions, existing social utilities are siloed into separate portals for every origin/location combination, buried beneath other content, and stuck in web 1.0 forum-based time capsules (e.g. chineseinla.com , chineseindc.com , etc.) However, by creating a single social utility to meet the needs of any diaspora population, at any location, and in any language, they hope to turn the existing paradigm on its head!
