Episode Title: Answering the Call: From Military Intelligence to Silicon Valley Startups

Episode Summary:

In this episode of Ten Talents with Keith Koo, we explore the incredible life journey of Josh Soto, founder of Open License, an AI-powered company addressing the critical need for intellectual property (IP) safety.



Josh’s story begins with humble beginnings, finding his footing by joining the military, where he served as an intelligence officer. His military career instilled in him the discipline and resilience that would later shape his success. After completing his service, Josh transitioned into the fast-paced world of Silicon Valley, working for industry leaders like Apple, VMware, Brocade, and eventually landing a dream role with Andreessen Horowitz.



Despite building an enviable career, Josh found himself at a crossroads—comfortable in prestigious roles, yet stirred by something deeper. Through faith and reflection, he answered the call to leave corporate life and pursue his passion by founding Open License, harnessing AI to protect innovators and safeguard intellectual property in a dynamic digital landscape.



Josh reflects on how faith influenced his decisions, from military service to corporate success, and ultimately to the bold leap into

entrepreneurship. His story is a testament to trusting God’s plan, embracing uncertainty, and finding purpose in solving meaningful problems.
