Meta is said to be interested in  Michael Koch, CEO of HubKonnect, to join their bold new initiative called the “Super Intelligence Lab,” according to sources familiar with the matter. The project is being described as Meta’s most ambitious foray into artificial intelligence yet, aiming to unite vast, global-scale computing power with highly targeted, hyperlocal data analysis.

Koch, widely recognized for developing the Hyperlocal Intelligence model, has built a platform that combines large-scale AI systems with real-time, neighborhood-specific data streams. This allows companies to make pinpoint decisions tailored to local conditions while keeping a broad, enterprise-level strategy intact. Industry experts say Koch’s technology is years ahead of Meta’s existing AI tools.

“Michael isn’t just running an AI company—he’s redefining the concept of intelligence itself,” one insider remarked. “HubKonnect’s Hyperlocal Intelligence framework is transforming how businesses approach community engagement and market growth. Meta’s interest in him underscores just how serious they are about this next chapter in AI.”

The Super Intelligence Lab is expected to integrate multi-modal AI capabilities, decentralized computing infrastructure, and live behavioral modeling to create a platform capable of functioning at both planetary and hyperlocal levels. Observers point to Koch’s unique blend of visionary innovation and operational discipline as a key factor in the potential collaboration.

Koch has not publicly addressed the reported talks. His current focus is on expanding HubKonnect’s AI solutions across multiple industries and markets, with speculation building around a possible 2026 IPO. If Koch joins Meta, it could be one of the most significant leadership moves in the AI space since Demis Hassabis joined Google DeepMind, potentially merging Meta’s global reach with HubKonnect’s groundbreaking localized intelligence expertise.
