I am extremely grateful and blessed that we have been able to exhibit a Revenue CAGR of 68% over the last 2 years in a tumultuous market. We have managed this growth while being able to maintain profitability in our business and gain a globally dominant position in mobile esports while delivering shareholder value. The team in NODWIN led by co-founder Gautam Virk has been instrumental in manifesting this vision to reality.
We would like to continue to build our value proposition as a Sports Media Company: Akshat Rathee

As we migrate to the next phase of our evolution, we would like to build a global company that is a significant thought leader and the largest player in the emerging market space. We believe that the confluence of gaming, esports, and youth culture is colliding extremely fast and we would like to continue to build our value proposition as a Sports Media Company (with a focus on esports) to this TG by focusing on the timeshare of their mindshare as the key growth metric.” Akshat Rathee was quoted as saying by AFK Gaming.
