Bennett Tanton
Bennett Tanton- Co-founder, Veteran, Podcast Host, and Leader in Defense Innovation
I am the Co-founder and Vice President of Battle Sight Technologies and currently serve on the Manufacturing Industrial Base Team at Montana State University, where I focus on enhancing the defense industrial base through strategic partnerships, particularly via the Department of Defense Mentor Protégé Program.
With 11 years of experience in nuclear security and anti-terrorism, coupled with 8 years as a certified peer support specialist for the Veterans Administration, my career has always been rooted in service. I proudly served as a Recon Marine in the Marine Corps and as an Infantryman in the Army, experiences that continue to shape my approach to national security and leadership.
I am also the creator and host of two podcasts, Full Spectrum Frontiers and Broadcasting Seeds, where I explore a wide range of topics from military technology and societal impacts to cryptids and the paranormal.
