Culture-Tech Founder • Fractional CMO/CGO • IP & Heritage Systems

Hasitha Supun Jayathilaka

I help founders, brands, and institutions build global relevance through narrative, heritage, and technology - and I lead growth systems that move from clarity → traction → scale.

Currently building The Archivist (VR-led cultural IP) and developing creator platforms and licensing pathways that bridge art, history, and modern distribution.

Backed by WIPO training in IP strategy and a published research practice in cultural heritage preservation.

About

A systems + story founder

I bridge cultural research, creative direction, and business execution - turning narrative into distribution and distribution into durable brand equity.

My work spans game development, VR, marketing, and venture building - with a focus on projects where culture, narrative, and product must align. I’ve supported 25+ businesses through growth strategy, and I’m currently building a research-driven cultural IP ecosystem around immersive worlds, creator pipelines, and licensing.

Alongside the ventures, I’m developing the Yellow House Reference Library (2,000+ books) as part of a research center designed to empower innovators and change-makers.
