Vincent A. Lanci/ Matt Leta

In this episode of That Entrepreneur Show, we sit down with Matt Leta — a serial entrepreneur, digital product innovator, and #1 bestselling author — whose career began at just 19. From founding and exiting startups like Dropr and TABLE, to building HOO KOO E KOO, a remote-first agency that has powered digital transformation for over 150 companies including Apple and Google, Matt shares his 20+ years of entrepreneurial wisdom.

Now leading Future Works and the nonprofit Future Horizon, Matt is pioneering AI integration in real-world businesses — particularly in aerospace, real estate, and manufacturing. Tune in to hear how he’s transforming resistance into readiness with his "One Hour Transformation" framework, why culture matters more than tools when embracing AI, and what inspired his bestselling book The Leap Guide. If you're an entrepreneur, founder, or executive wondering how to future-proof your company, this conversation is a must-listen.
