Est. 2026 — Cicero, New York
A heritage culture and technology company connecting the global diaspora through language, community and innovation.
The Lewis Highland Group LLC is a holding company founded on the belief that cultural heritage and modern technology are not opposites — they are partners.
Rooted in the Gaelic traditions of the Scottish Highlands and the living heritage communities of North America, we build platforms, tools and experiences that bring ancient cultures into the modern world.
Our companies span digital education, community infrastructure, heritage tourism, and immersive cultural experience. Each is built to last, built to scale, and built to honour the communities it serves.
We are based in Cicero, New York — a community with deep roots in the heritage of the American Northeast — and operate globally.
The global home of Scottish Gaelic language, culture and community. An AI-powered learning platform, diaspora community hub, and cultural nerve centre for Gaels worldwide.
A GPS-guided heritage tour application for Cicero, New York — bringing local history to life through immersive storytelling, AI narration and community-contributed content.
A repeatable, licensable heritage community platform deployable for any cultural group worldwide. Irish, Italian, Polish, German — any diaspora community can own their own GlobalCeilidh.
GlobalCeilidh.com launches. Aileen teaches Gàidhlig. The first festival truck appears at Highland Games. Grants secured.
Cicero Heritage App launches. Platform licensing begins. Additional language communities join the GlobalCeilidh network.
Heritage communities worldwide license The Platform. Festival trucks operate across North America, Canada, Australia and the UK.
Aileen becomes the brain and face of the first Gàidhlig-speaking android — a cultural ambassador who can stand in a room and speak to you as if she were truly there.
"The goal is not to preserve culture behind glass. The goal is to make it live again — in classrooms, at festivals, in living rooms, and eventually in the hands of the communities themselves."
Every technology decision we make is designed to serve this vision. We build on open standards, own our infrastructure, and architect everything to scale — from a single coffee shop lesson to a globally licensed platform serving millions.
We are not building an app. We are building the infrastructure for cultural survival in the digital age.
The Lewis Highland Group exists to prove that a small team with deep roots, bold vision and the right technology can do what large institutions cannot — move fast, stay authentic, and build something that lasts.
We welcome conversations with grant bodies, cultural organisations, investors, and communities who share our vision for the future of heritage culture.
