Press Release
Sonia Hodgin, Founder of Formulaic Inc., Transforms 27 Years of Investing, Business Ownership, Philanthropy, and Financial Adversity Into Global Award-Winning Innovation
From newly widowed mother to founder of Formulaic Inc., Hodgin’s path through real estate, business ownership, community leadership, rental losses, technology vision, and alternative asset strategy shaped the creation of Formulaic300.
United States, 6th Jul 2026 — Sonia Hodgin, Founder, President, and Executive Chair of Formulaic Inc., announced the continued expansion of Formulaic300, a private technology and membership platform shaped by more than 27 years of investing experience, business ownership, real estate strategy, philanthropic leadership, software-driven opportunity discovery, and firsthand exposure to the challenges faced by private investors.
Hodgin’s path into investing did not begin from comfort. At age 26, she became a newly widowed mother with a five-year-old child and was forced to confront financial uncertainty at a young age. In 2000, after facing significant financial loss and the responsibility of rebuilding stability for her family, Hodgin refinanced her home and took a calculated risk by purchasing her first rental property. She turned that property into a cash-flowing vacation rental, beginning a long investment journey that would later shape her understanding of assets, timing, opportunity, loss, leverage, risk, and resilience.
“I did not start as someone who had the luxury of waiting for opportunity,” said Hodgin. “I had to create it. I was a young widow, a mother, and I had to learn how to survive financially, rebuild, and recognize value where others may not have seen it.”
Long before launching Formulaic Inc., Hodgin’s life was also shaped by service. Since her teenage years, she has been involved in philanthropic, faith-based, educational, and community leadership efforts. Her background includes Catholic education teaching, program development, directing community and faith-based initiatives, Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts leadership, and participation in leadership-focused nonprofit organizations supporting entrepreneurial women and men.
That service background became part of the foundation behind Formulaic Inc.’s broader mission. For Hodgin, opportunity discovery is not only about transactions. It is also about stewardship, education, leadership, legacy, and helping people access better pathways when traditional systems do not fully serve them.
Over the following decades, Hodgin expanded her experience across real estate, business ownership, acquisitions, private investing, and strategic asset development. Her background includes 27 years in investing, ownership in 17 companies, three acquired businesses, and management of a real estate portfolio that included 38 residential rental properties, commercial buildings nationwide, and land ownership nationwide.
Her journey included both major wins and significant setbacks. Hodgin credits those experiences — the difficult turns, the financial strain, the hard lessons, and the few powerful wins in between — with shaping the strategic thinking that eventually became the foundation of Formulaic Inc.
“So many bad turns, and then a few great wins, shaped the way I think,” Hodgin said. “The losses taught me what traditional systems miss. The wins taught me that opportunity is often hidden in alignment, timing, structure, and relationships.”
Hodgin was also deeply impacted by the struggles faced by rental property owners during periods of government-imposed restrictions and pandemic-era rental disruption. She describes those periods as a turning point in her thinking, particularly as many private rental owners faced income interruption, regulatory uncertainty, permanent lost payments, and financial losses while still carrying mortgages, taxes, insurance, maintenance, legal and other property obligations.
For Hodgin, the experience reinforced a larger issue: private investors, property owners, founders, and asset holders often operate without the same structured intelligence, exchange environments, and alignment tools available in more established financial markets.
“That period exposed how vulnerable private investors can be when systems shift around them,” Hodgin said. “I understood the need for a platform that could help people see opportunity, protect strategy, align assets, and think beyond one-dimensional transactions.”
Formulaic Inc. was created from that need.
Drawing from her investment background, software and technology vision, business ownership experience, philanthropic service, and years of developing proprietary strategic formulas, Hodgin built Formulaic300 as a private opportunity discovery platform focused on alternative assets, business interests, capital objectives, legacy initiatives, and multi-party transaction alignment.
Formulaic300 combines NFC member access, AI deal matchmaking, asset forums, legacy infrastructure, proprietary formulas, and multi-exchange transaction logic within a selective private network. The platform is designed for qualified members seeking smarter ways to explore assets, business opportunities, capital objectives, strategic transactions, and relationship-driven value creation.
While Bloomberg changed how financial information moves, and exchanges changed how market participants connect, Formulaic300 addresses a different and often underserved category: how private alternative opportunities are discovered, aligned, and structured among the right members.
At the center of Formulaic300 is Hodgin’s proprietary formula methodology, developed over more than sixteen years. The methodology is designed to identify patterns, relationships, transaction possibilities, and strategic alignments that may be overlooked in traditional deal models. Through AI deal matchmaking, proprietary formulas, and multi-exchange logic, Formulaic300 supports private opportunity alignment across multiple parties, assets, objectives, and transaction structures.
Formulaic Inc. has since received global recognition for innovation, marking a significant milestone for Hodgin’s long-term vision.
“This is not just software to me,” Hodgin said. “It is the result of lived experience, hard lessons, financial survival, business ownership, investing, loss, rebuilding, service, and the understanding that private opportunity needs better infrastructure.”
Hodgin’s story reflects the evolution of an entrepreneur who turned personal adversity into strategic vision. From a young widow forced to rebuild financially, to a business owner, investor, community leader, and technology founder with decades of experience, to the founder of a global award-winning innovation, her work through Formulaic Inc. is rooted in the belief that opportunity discovery can be more intelligent, more aligned, and more intentional.
“Formulaic Inc. was built because I lived the gaps,” Hodgin added. “I understood the need because I experienced the consequences of not having it. Formulaic300 is my answer to that need.”
Formulaic300 will remain limited to 100 approved members worldwide, reflecting the company’s focus on privacy, trust, quality participation, and long-term relationship-based value creation.

United States, 22nd Aug 2026 — Managing a modern industrial or commercial facility often requires more than completing a construction project. From engineering and equipment installation to automation, facility transitions, and ongoing maintenance, organizations may need multiple specialized teams to work together without disrupting operations. MTLI Group of Companies is addressing this challenge through an integrated infrastructure model designed to bring these requirements under one accountable structure.
Founded in 1982, MTLI Group has spent more than four decades developing infrastructure solutions for organizations across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. With more than 15,000 completed projects, 100+ professionals, and a network of 800+ vendors and partners, the company is positioned to support complex programs involving multiple facilities, trades, locations, and project phases.
“Complex facilities require coordination long after the first construction activity begins,” said Mitchell Learning, CEO of MTLI Group. “Our integrated structure allows us to remain involved across multiple stages so clients can approach infrastructure development and change as one connected program.”
Reducing Fragmentation Across Facility Programs
One of the challenges associated with major facility projects is coordination. A construction contractor may complete one phase, an automation specialist may handle another, and separate providers may be responsible for installation, relocation, maintenance, or recovery.
MTLI Group takes a different approach by combining these capabilities within a broader infrastructure platform. Engineering, project management, construction, installation, automation, transitions, and lifecycle services can be coordinated through a single delivery structure.
This model is designed to provide clients with greater visibility into project schedules, costs, safety requirements, and execution while reducing the need to manage numerous independent workstreams.
Building Infrastructure Around Operational Requirements
The growing adoption of automation is changing the way warehouses and distribution facilities are designed and operated. Warehouse automation can involve sophisticated equipment and technology, but successful implementation also depends on the surrounding physical infrastructure.
As a warehouse automation company, MTLI Group supports projects where automation needs to be considered alongside construction, installation, electrical systems, controls, equipment placement, and facility operations. This integrated perspective can help organizations approach automation as part of the overall facility rather than as a separate technology project.
MTLI’s role can extend from engineering and planning through installation and commissioning, helping coordinate the transition from project design to operational infrastructure.
Supporting Commercial and Industrial Development
Facility requirements can vary significantly between commercial properties, manufacturing environments, distribution centers, and logistics operations. MTLI Group provides construction capabilities designed to accommodate these different environments.
As a commercial construction company, the organization supports commercial facility projects, modifications, buildouts, and infrastructure improvements. Its capabilities as a commercial general contractor allow it to coordinate construction activities with other project requirements and specialized trades.
MTLI also provides design build construction services, connecting engineering and construction considerations within the same project framework. This approach can help streamline communication between planning and field execution while creating clearer accountability throughout development.
For manufacturing and industrial environments, MTLI operates as an industrial construction company, supporting projects that may require coordination between structural work, equipment installation, automation, electrical systems, and ongoing facility operations.
Infrastructure Support Beyond the Build
For MTLI Group, facility delivery does not necessarily end when construction is complete. Buildings and industrial environments require continued attention as equipment ages, operational requirements change, and businesses expand or relocate.
Through its capabilities as a facility management company, MTLI supports ongoing maintenance, inspections, repairs, equipment services, troubleshooting, and infrastructure optimization.
The company also provides facility transition and asset recovery services for organizations moving, consolidating, expanding, or redesigning operations. Equipment and infrastructure can be dismantled, relocated, recovered, reinstalled, or redeployed as part of broader transition programs.
About MTLI Group of Companies
MTLI Group of Companies is an integrated industrial and commercial infrastructure platform serving the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Founded in 1982, the company specializes in engineering, automation, construction, installation, logistics, facility transitions, asset recovery, and lifecycle support.
MTLI’s experience includes more than 15,000 completed projects, supported by 100+ professionals and a network of 800+ trusted vendors and partners. The company is structured to manage multi-site, multi-trade, and multi-phase programs while maintaining a centralized approach to project accountability.
Rather than limiting its role to traditional contracting, MTLI works as a long-term infrastructure partner, supporting clients from early planning and design through installation, maintenance, transitions, and ongoing performance optimization.
