Aerospace and defense leader to unify brand, growth and strategic communications across the enterprise

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Voyager Technologies (NYSE: VOYG) announced the promotion of John Baum to chief marketing officer (CMO), leading the company’s global brand, marketing and strategic communications as the company accelerates growth across space, defense and national security markets.

Baum previously served as executive vice president of Strategy & Advanced Concepts, advancing partnerships across government and industry and aligning the company’s portfolio with deep space exploration initiatives. As CMO, Baum will oversee corporate marketing, brand strategy, communications and stakeholder engagement, ensuring Voyager’s story, strategy and execution move in lockstep.

“John brings rare operational credibility and deep communications expertise, which is exactly what Voyager needs as we scale,” said Dylan Taylor, chairman and CEO of Voyager. “This role reflects the importance of marketing and strategic communications as core drivers of growth.”

Baum’s appointment reflects a career spent operating at the intersection of mission execution, public trust and strategic influence. He previously served as Chief of the Media & Opinion Leader Branch for the Secretary of the Air Force, where he led strategic communications, outreach, and engagement with senior stakeholders across the Department of War, Congress and the defense industrial base. In that role, he helped shape national-level messaging on air, space and defense priorities while strengthening relationships with policymakers, industry leaders and international partners.

“Voyager is building capabilities that matter – capabilities that shape how our nation operates in space and defends itself on Earth,” Baum said. “As CMO, my focus is making sure our story reflects the operational depth, technical credibility and performance expectations of what this team is delivering every day.”

Prior to joining Voyager, Baum held senior leadership roles across commercial spaceflight, advanced aviation and defense training, including executive positions supporting astronaut training, flight-test readiness and global aerospace partnerships. He also co-founded Draken International, helping build the world’s largest commercial fleet of tactical fighter aircraft and overseeing multinational operations, safety programs and government engagement.
