“In line with the vision of Shopclues, Goel’s focus has been building and managing scalable, robust, intuitive and easy-to-use products and services to enable merchants to scale their business faster and help them succeed in the hyper-local/regional/national/cross-border context,” Shopclues said in a statement.

“I am very pleased to join the government sector and look forward to driving the formulation and implementation of policies pertaining to the department of commerce. I intend to offer best of my abilities in the new role bestowed upon me by the Government of India,” said Goel, who will be among a large group of experts with domain knowledge entering, perhaps for the first time, the public administration through lateral entry at the joint secretary level.

Goel also brings in entrepreneurial enthusiasm to his team through his experience with Grow Wealth Capital as its managing partner, right from its inception. He was also the founder of Aroma Communications, a global telecom company, being responsible for building and managing the telecom switched network (PSTN switching) as well as VOIP network, bringing the understanding of very large-scale product management to the team at Shopclues.
