    Episode 8 Utah County

    This episode takes a different approach to innovation in local government. Rather than hearing from a technology vendor, this conversation features an innovative county commissioner from Utah County, offering a firsthand look at what it really means to lead change from inside government. We explore how innovation looks when viewed through the responsibilities of public service—balancing progress with accountability, managing risk, stewarding taxpayer dollars, and maintaining trust with the community. This discussion moves beyond tools and platforms to focus on leadership, culture, and decision-making in a rapidly evolving public-sector landscape. If you’re a county official, CIO, or public-sector professional, this episode provides practical insight from someone who must turn ideas into action—and live with the results. 🎧 Listen in for an honest, thoughtful conversation about innovation where it matters most: inside county government.

    Episode 7 Ladris

    How can counties prepare for the disasters they can’t see coming? In this episode of Spotlight Gov Innovation, Tim Oliver sits down with Leo, founder of Ladris, an emerging leader in AI-driven predictive modeling and situational awareness for local government. Ladris is bringing next-generation tools—once reserved for federal agencies—directly into the hands of county emergency managers, public works, 911 centers, and resilience teams. We explore how Ladris uses advanced simulations to forecast impacts from storms, floods, wildfires, evacuations, and large-scale events—giving local governments the ability to “look around the corner” and make faster, more informed decisions. Leo shares the story behind the company, why they’re partnering closely with counties, and what the future of predictive intelligence means for public safety, resource allocation, and community resilience. If you’re interested in practical, mission-driven innovation that strengthens county readiness, this conversation is a must-listen.
