    Episode Overview In this episode of the Business Leaders of America Podcast, we sit down with Tim Maliyil, a veteran technology executive and serial entrepreneur with more than 30 years of experience building and scaling companies across cybersecurity, SaaS, e-commerce, and AI-driven platforms. Tim has founded and led multiple companies through every stage of growth, from early-stage startups to enterprise-scale platforms supporting over 1 million daily users. He has scaled organizations to 160+ employees, generated more than $40M in revenue, led major cloud and infrastructure transformations, and built and exited AlertBoot, a cybersecurity company, to private equity. Throughout the conversation, Tim shares what it really takes to scale and stabilize high-growth companies, how leaders can create operational discipline in complex environments, and why execution often matters more than strategy in the long run. He also breaks down the current state of AI adoption across industries, what companies are getting right, where they are going wrong, and how over-reliance on AI-generated thinking can lead to flawed business decisions without real-world context and experience. A major focus of the discussion is PerkyPet, where Tim serves as CEO. PerkyPet is an AI-powered pet wellness platform that uses veterinary science and machine learning to give pet owners proactive insights into their pets’ health and behavior, acting as a “veterinary assistant between visits.

    Business Leaders of America Podcast Featuring Will Harvey Founder of Harvey Capital Episode Overview In this episode of the Business Leaders of America Podcast, we sit down with Will Harvey, Founder of Harvey Capital, a private real estate credit firm focused on real estate lending, investing, and disciplined capital management. Will began his career in 2015 as a residential loan officer before transitioning into real estate investing, house flipping, syndications, and eventually building Harvey Capital. Today, the firm originates first-lien bridge loans to real estate investors and acquires owner-financed notes nationwide. In this conversation, Will breaks down how his early experience in the mortgage business shaped the way he thinks about risk, capital allocation, and long-term wealth creation. He shares why he ultimately left the traditional lending world to build something of his own, what he learned from flipping houses, and how many of the best opportunities in his career came from unexpected situations rather than carefully planned strategies. Will also explains the philosophy behind Harvey Capital and why he prioritizes capital preservation, margin of safety, patience, and disciplined underwriting over chasing trends or forcing deals. He discusses why he prefers credit over equity in the current market environment, how he evaluates asymmetric risk-reward opportunities, and why long-term thinking gives investors a major advantage in a world driven by short-term gratification. Throughout the episode, Will shares practical insights on raising capital, aligning interests with investors, identifying mispriced opportunities, and how artificial intelligence is beginning to reshape real estate investing and underwriting. From public-private real estate arbitrage to first-lien lending and long-term investing discipline, this episode offers valuable lessons for anyone interested in building wealth through real estate and intelligent capital allocation.
