Joshua Forstot

CIO
Joshua serves as Chief Information Officer at Argonaut Capital, a role that in practice extends well beyond its traditional scope. He oversees the firm’s technology infrastructure, cybersecurity, data integrity, and operational systems, while carrying direct responsibility for how the firm is built, branded, and positioned for growth. This includes developing the custom platforms, proprietary tools, and AI-driven systems the firm relies on to operate and scale. Joshua brings more than 25 years of experience building at the intersection of creativity, technology, and strategy. He co-founded multiple award-winning agencies, led digital and creative functions at some of the world’s most recognized global agencies, and has delivered work for clients including Nike, Disney, Apple, American Express, Toyota, HBO, Red Bull, and dozens of others spanning entertainment, consumer goods, pharma, and technology. Earlier in his career he co-founded one of the largest legal digital music platforms globally, giving him firsthand experience building and scaling a technology product from the ground up. That breadth is what defines his contribution to Argonaut. He moves fluidly across disciplines that most organizations keep siloed, and it is that range that makes him central to how the firm functions day to day. Joshua also serves in fractional CIO and CMO capacities for select portfolio companies, ensuring compliance and driving operational performance. He currently holds that role at both Alkemix and Origen.
