NODWIN Gaming, an esports and youth entertainment company, has appointed Manish Agarwal as a non-executive director as part of its preparations for a potential initial public offering (IPO). Agarwal, who previously played a pivotal role in taking Nazara Technologies public, is expected to enhance the board's strategic depth during this crucial phase. NODWIN aims to raise over $100 million in a pre-IPO round within the next two to three years. The company has experienced significant growth, reporting a revenue of ₹524 crore (approximately $63 million USD) for FY25, with a consistent compound annual growth rate of over 50% since 2018. In the first three quarters of FY26, NODWIN's revenue reached ₹530.3 crore (approximately $64 million USD), and the company has remained EBITDA positive. Agarwal's experience in governance and scaling businesses will be vital as NODWIN expands its market presence and aligns with public market expectations.
