Valentino

Founder — Aventen Innovations

THE PERSON BEHIND THE BOARD

16 years old.
2 years building.
No investors. No backing.

Valentino started Aventen Innovations at 14 — no investors, no engineering degree, no industry connections. Just a laptop, a copy of KiCad, and the conviction that every dev board on the market was leaving too much on the table.

Kypros wasn't born in a university lab or a corporate R&D department. It was born out of frustration — frustration that every board makes you choose between connectivity, audio, sensors, or performance. Why not all of them?

Valentino started designing the Kypros at 14. Two years of late nights — learning PCB design from scratch, sourcing components, negotiating with distributors, and leading the project from concept to hardware. No investors. No engineering degree. No corporate backing. Just a vision that the embedded industry was moving too slowly — and the stubbornness to do something about it.

"I didn't wait for permission. I just started designing."
