What if the next wave of world-changing innovation doesn’t come from Silicon Valley? In this episode of The Covert Code Podcast, I sit down with David Blivin, founder and managing director of Cottonwood Technology Funds and author of Crossing the Cactus, to unpack why great ideas don’t need Silicon Valley to succeed—and what it actually takes to commercialize innovation in under-resourced regions. David Blivin shares how venture capital shifted from hard tech to software (because it’s faster and cheaper to scale), why “things still matter” in the age of AI, and why the real challenge isn’t ideas—it’s money and management. We dive into what states and communities can do to build sustainable tech ecosystems, how to keep startups from relocating once they scale, and why the “people strategy” is the missing piece in most economic development plans. If you’re a founder, investor, policy leader, or someone building beyond the usual tech hubs, this conversation with David Blivin is a practical roadmap for turning innovation into real companies and real jobs. 📖 GET THE BOOK: The Covert Code – Mastering the Art of Digital Marketing Amazon: https://rb.gy/wrht8 Barnes & Noble: https://rb.gy/vwev0a Target: https://rb.gy/jhpxri ✨ CONNECT WITH DAVID BLIVIN Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dblivin Cottonwood Technology Fund: cottonwood.vc/ 🎧 LISTEN ON ALL PLATFORMS: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0UcnL4g4J2DckqMpZg4DdB Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-covert-code/id1733326615 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/d15bb709-a4df-43bb-9284-9e479c8574a7/the-covert-code iHeart Radio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-covert-code-269144900/ YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/channel/UCSU2Anqu1_yzb_D6IFd7i_Q 🌐 FOLLOW THE COVERT CODE: Website: https://thecovertcode.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/covertcodeofficial Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecovertcode LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/covert-code-official/ 📚 ABOUT HOST ANNA COVERT: Anna Covert is the host of The Covert Code Podcast and author of The Covert Code – Mastering the Art of Digital Marketing and The Solar Coaster.

🎉 CELEBRATING 100 EPISODES! 🎉 What better way to mark this milestone than with a conversation about leadership that truly transforms lives? In this special 100th episode of The Covert Code Podcast, I sit down with Katie Goar, President of Quadel and a nationally recognized leader in affordable housing and community development. In 2024, Katie took the TEDx stage to share a powerful message about why a hand up—not a handout—can change lives. She's also the host of ChangeMakers, a Forbes partnership podcast spotlighting innovators reshaping the housing landscape. Katie's work is deeply personal. At just 11 years old, she experienced housing instability—an early chapter that shaped her perspective but never defined her future. Discover why secure housing creates opportunity, how lived experience transforms into purposeful leadership, and how our past can help us craft a stronger, more inclusive future for others. Whether you're in community development, leadership, or simply seeking to understand how personal challenges become catalysts for systemic change, Katie's insights will transform how you think about lifting others without labeling them. 📖 GET THE BOOK: The Covert Code – Mastering the Art of Digital Marketing Amazon: https://rb.gy/wrht8 Barnes & Noble: https://rb.gy/vwev0a Target: https://rb.gy/jhpxri ✨ CONNECT WITH KATIE GOAR Website: https://katiegoar.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katiegoar/ Quadel: https://quadel.com/ ChangeMakers Podcast: [Podcast link if available] 🎧 LISTEN ON ALL PLATFORMS: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0UcnL4g4J2DckqMpZg4DdB?si=NKAFJcRMSdOJlP5iebBxoA&nd=1&dlsi=50d6d5c5753a499b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-covert-code/id1733326615 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/d15bb709-a4df-43bb-9284-9e479c8574a7/the-covert-code iHeart Radio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-covert-code-269144900/ YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/channel/UCSU2Anqu1_yzb_D6IFd7i_Q 🌐 FOLLOW THE COVERT CODE: Website: https://thecovertcode.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/covertcodeofficial Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecovertcode LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/covert-code-official/ 📚 ABOUT HOST ANNA COVERT: Anna Covert is the host of The Covert Code Podcast and author of The Covert Code – Mastering the Art of Digital Marketing and The Solar Coaster.
