On this week’s episode of Warrior Money, hosts Patrick Murphy and Dan Kunze welcomed Joseph Kopser, an Army veteran and accomplished entrepreneur, to discuss his inspiring journey from military service to business innovation.
Kopser co-founded RideScout, a mobility app acquired by Mercedes-Benz, inspired by his personal struggle commuting to the Pentagon. “I saw a real problem and decided to solve it,” Kopser explained, emphasizing how critical validation, innovation, and networking were in his entrepreneurial journey.
Drawing on his West Point education and combat experience in Iraq, Kopser highlighted three key principles that guided his success: teamwork, mission focus, and resilience. He noted that these skills—honed through military service—equipped him to overcome challenges and build strong, cohesive teams.
The discussion also addressed Kopser’s passion for civic engagement. He shared insights from his Congressional run and efforts through his organization, US Tomorrow, to bridge political divides. Kopser believes finding common ground in areas like jobs, education, and family is essential for national unity.
