meet Our founder

Hyperintelligent Research Communities is a deep-tech R&D collective on a mission to democratize scientific opportunity. Founded by Wayne Swinson, MS—an educator, tech innovator, and former SPED teacher—we bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and underserved communities through:

1. EQUITY BY DESIGN

   • Built AI-driven STEM pipelines serving 1,000+ students (40% annual growth), with 50% participation from Title I schools and neurodiverse learners.

   • Developed culturally responsive curricula that boosted college readiness by 30% (vs. national avg. of 12%).

2. GLOBAL TO LOCAL IMPACT

   • From Western Cape townships (where we assessed school safety risks) to South LA classrooms, we adapt research tools for community needs.

   • Our "Scientists Spotlights" program—cited in NIH grants—increased URM STEM retention by 22%.

3. COMMERCIALIZING FOR GOOD

   • Licensed 3 AI/biotech patents ($500K+ revenue) to fund free STEM labs for SPED students.

   • Partnered with 12+ school districts to deploy our hyperintelligent platforms, aligning with leaders like Dr. Shelton who prioritize "heard, seen, engaged" learning.

Why It Matters
As a former special education teacher, Wayne saw firsthand how systemic gaps exclude brilliant minds. Hyperintelligent Research Communities exists to rewrite that narrative—because science literacy isn’t a privilege; it’s a right we engineer.
