Dalvy MathewChairman & Founder

Chapter IThe story

A builder first. A defender by conviction.

Dalvy Mathew started with a soldering iron, not a boardroom. At fifteen he designed and built a hardware project that a Pune-based company bought. That first sale proved he could build something people would pay for.

More client projects followed. He picked up practical engineering discipline along the way and found where his career was heading: cyber security. He studied how systems break so he could build ones that don't.

While he was still at university, the work was formally incorporated as a company. Today Tinos Software & Security Solutions LLP is at the centre of a group of nine companies. Each one was started because he saw a problem that nobody else was solving properly.

Dalvy is recognised as a leading cyber security expert and a visionary leader. He leads a team of more than 40 people, and his aim hasn't changed since that first project: technology that is secure, practical and built to last.

“Security isn't a feature you add at the end. It's the foundation you build everything else on.”

Chapter IIThe journey

How it grew

The group grew one step at a time: a single hardware project, then a company, then a group of nine.

  1. I

    Age 15

    The first sale

    Dalvy built a small hardware project and sold it to a company in Pune. It was his first commercial deal and the start of everything that followed.

  2. II

    The early years

    Small projects, fast learning

    He took on one small project after another, covering electronics, software and automation. Each one taught him something about the craft and about what clients actually need.

  3. III

    Finding the focus

    Cyber security becomes the mission

    Seeing how easily systems could be broken, Dalvy made cyber security his career. He focused on offensive testing, defensive engineering and building security into systems from the start.

  4. IV

    During graduation

    Tinos is incorporated

    While still studying, Dalvy formally incorporated the company. Tinos Software & Security Solutions LLP grew into a firm that designs, builds and defends business-critical software.

  5. V

    Expansion

    From one company to a group

    He started new ventures where he saw gaps: 99Learn Academy and Metailearn in education, Jawcart in commerce, Sentinora Technologies in public safety, and Herewego Services in services.

  6. VI

    Today

    Tinos Group of Companies

    The group now has nine companies, including Tinos Robotics, Tinos Production and Tinos Internships. More than 40 people work across them, and the group builds platforms such as NQ Core, Sentinora and LeadForge.
