In principle, you could have a hub site as your intranet home page, pull in corporate news from a communication site, and also give each department a team site for additional news items.
Does this mean we can use Hub Sites as our Intranet or is it still some building blocks missing?

38. Common usage cases for hub sites
• Department hubs—consider common shared services groups like IT, HR,
Marketing or Finance where there are likely a large number of collaboration
initiatives underway and natural structure in place for how work is being done.
• Regional hubs—for large organizations that have many regional locations or
sites, hubs could be a great way to provide a sense of local identity and highlight
communication from within the region.
• Project hubs or a PMO hub—most larger organizations have a PMO and
manage a collection of Programs and Projects. Providing a simple mechanism to
access all the active and completed projects and rolling-up project related
announcements or status details are common needs that could easily be satisfied
with a hub.
39. Common usage cases
• Board hub—with Office 365, many companies are setting up their Boards with
an externally available site to host critical board reports and meeting materials
• Financial reporting hub—end of quarter and end of year financial reporting
cycles often require a tremendous amount of collaboration across departments
that all roll-up to finance.

43. News Roll-up
New published on a hubsites and associated sites is automatically
aggregated
Choose which associated sites to display news from
Users will only see news they have access to
45. Highlighted content
Use the Highlighted content web part to dynamically display content
from sites associated with the hub site on the home page.
Select the sites you want to show information from
Select the type of content you want to show, and apply different
filters to also narrow down the result
47. Associated sites
Display the most active sites associated with the hub site on the home
page by using the Sites web part. And choose the layout you want
49. What does hub sites offer
• They add a consistent branding across all sites
• They add a persistent menu, making it easier to move between the
linked sites.
• If you search within the hub site, it will also search all linked sites.
• A handy news digest option lets you collate selected news stories to
go out as an email summary, with images and links.
• We recently also got content targeting
• And we will also get publishing workflow/flow
50. Hub Site Limitations
• Sites linked into a hub site can only be associated with one hub site.
• Hubs can’t be nested, limiting their potential for a corporate portal
• No fix for multiple languages

51. Configuration tips
• You can always detach a site from a Hub if you want to attach it to another hub site in
the future.
• News, once posted on an associated site, typically takes 5–15mins to index and roll-up
to the Hub
• Hubs do not influence permissions.
• Cross site navigation means that the associated sites will have two top level navigation
bars — the hub site navigation and the current site navigation.
• Hubs will work with the SharePoint mobile app, so consider communicating to end
users which hubs they should follow or find
• You can setup your hub to require approvals. That way, not anyone would be able to
attach to a hub but instead they would have to be approved by the hub Site Owner
52. So does hub site helps us
with our Modern
SharePoint Intranet?
57. Providers – A lot different, so you just need
to find the one you trust and loves.
