Just imagine, you graduated from Harvard in Theology and become a pastor. And then, you leave everything behind and start a software company that is providing language and translation services. You raise venture capital, move from Texas to California and are all in on your start-up. From pastor to start-up founder sounds crazy to you? Well, this is exactly what Josh Daneschfruuz, co-founder and CEO of Lango did! Josh talks to us about how he found his first customers and how he managed to raise a seed round of $2 million US dollars, and also why the path he took from pastor and entrepreneur is actually not that far apart as we might think.
