In this episode of Visa To Venture, Jacob Sapochnick sits down with Dora Ozsoy, Turkish YouTuber, software engineer, game developer, and Founder of Rogue Duck Interactive.
Before expanding into the United States, Dora was already building in Turkey as part of the core team behind Stratera Games. He shares how that foundation led to the creation of Rogue Duck Interactive, a U.S.-based software entertainment company.
With more than 700,000 subscribers on YouTube, Dora built a global audience while developing strategy and simulation games designed for long-term replayability. In this conversation, he discusses scaling across borders, navigating immigration as a tech founder, and transitioning from creator to company builder in an increasingly competitive industry.
The episode also explores how artificial intelligence is influencing game development, production systems, and player experience. Dora explains why AI represents a structural shift in the industry and why founders cannot afford to wait for perfect information before taking action.
This conversation offers practical insight for immigrant founders, global operators, and entrepreneurs building in technology and entertainment.
