Nikhil Arora
Managing Director and Vice President, GoDaddy
A driven corporate executive who believes in “being missionary first before being a mercenary”, Nikhil Arora is always looking for avenues where he can make an impact. In a career spanning over two decades and five countries, Nikhil has led several functions including corporate strategy, business development, marketing, finance and operations for various global entities. He has helped launch several new businesses in his tenure at these organizations, and is deeply passionate about grassroots innovation and giving voice to good ideas – wherever they may come from.
Nikhil is currently responsible for leading GoDaddy’s India business, constantly working towards identifying new growth strategies for entrepreneurs and small businesses in the country. Nikhil joined the company in 2017, and since then, has taken the world’s largest internet domain registrar and web hosting company to new summits, bagging the honor of The Economic Times Best Brands 2019 Award, India’s Fastest Growing Companies in 2019 by WCRCINT and NexBrands’ Thought leadership & Brand Innovation Award for two times in a row. His focus is on forging a connection with entrepreneurs as they try to make their way in a fast changing economy, and has become an avid voice for small businesses opening themselves up to digital possibilities. Recent recipient of The Economic Times’ Most Promising Business Leaders of Asia 2019 award, Nikhil has been using press and social media platforms to highlight important ways in which the Indian consumer is changing, and the various resources small businesses have at their disposal today to capture this new market.
Prior to joining GoDaddy India, Nikhil launched and led the Asia and India operations for WeWork, world’s largest provider of shared workspaces and community services, and helped set up its base in the continent. From 2011 to 2017, he served as Managing Director and Vice President, India for Intuit Inc., leading its India business strategy and successfully completing the company’s first global acquisition outside the US market. Nikhil joined Intuit from Laureate Education, where he served as Vice President and Head of Operations and was instrumental in making Laureate the first global player to acquire education assets in the dynamic Indian market. Before coming back to Asia, Nikhil has spent many years in the US and Europe at organizations like ADP, Delphi Automotive, CBS Television and Miramax Films. He earned his Master's Degree in Business Administration from Thunderbird School of Global Management in Arizona and a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration in Accounting and Finance from Hofstra University, New York. Nikhil studied Russian language from Moscow Institute. Apart from work, Nikhil’s abiding passions are fitness and running. Having discovered it a decade ago, running is today an important facet of Nikhil’s physical and mental wellbeing. It helps him right-zone and refocus his mind, while enabling him to constantly push the boundaries of what he’s achieved before.
Nikhil has completed over 30 Full and Half Marathons in India, Asia Pacific, Middle-East, Europe and North America. He has also completed the world’s largest running relay race in Portland, USA, – Hood to Coast - which is a 199-mile team relay event. In 2017-18, he decided to push himself beyond running by completing four triathlons, including two back-to-back IronMan 70.3 races in Dubai and Colombo. He also likes to keep things interesting by participating in extreme fitness events like X Warrior and the Devil’s Circuit. Nikhil now uses his running as a platform for various CSR activities – his own as well as for GoDaddy’s philanthropic arm, GoDaddy Cares. In 2017, he led a team of GoDaddy employees in the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon (ADHM) to support the ‘Save The Children India’ NGO and its cause of ending discrimination against underprivileged children. In an attempt to give back to the running community and as an ode to all the people he leaned on for encouragement and expertise as a beginner himself, since 2018, Nikhil has been participating as an official pacer for Airtel Delhi Half Marathon, helping other marathoners achieve their personal bests.

BUY A “TICKET FOR GOOD”
Photo credits: Stephen Chee
Clearly the Mass Participation industry and charities are “joined at the hip” in many parts of the world and the impact of COVID has been devastating for both sectors. The result is that many people in need who are usually supported by charities are suffering.
In addition, at a time when the impact of climate change and the future of the planet is so crucial there are a vast array of climate-related causes that need support.
Since our inception, back in 2015, MPW has supported B1G1, an incredible global business giving movement on a mission to create a world full of giving. We have contributed a portion of delegate registration fees to support the likes of projects that provide clean water to rural villages in Cambodia and Ethiopia, provide education to children in the Philippines and plant trees in Indonesia.
With this year’s MPW Conference being free there are obviously no delegate fees for us to contribute a portion of so instead we encourage you to buy a “Ticket for Good” by clicking on the button below which will take you to the B1G1 site. B1G1 makes it incredibly easy to select and contribute an amount that matches your budget to a cause that resonates with you. Powerful impact can be created from as little as a few cents.
We hope you will take a few minutes to make an impact.
