Lakshya Jhalani

Co-Founder @ Dalnex

About

Engineer by background. Entrepreneur by choice. Marketer at heart. At Dalnex, we’re building Industry 4.0 infrastructure that makes factories smarter, faster, and more resilient. Our tech connects machines to the cloud and insights to action—digitizing shopfloors without disrupting what already works. What began as a bold idea is now live across 100+ factories, transforming operations with real-time visibility, accountability, and data that finally speaks to those on the ground. Beyond factories, I’ve co-founded LazyNest, a smart home automation brand bringing convenience, comfort, and control into everyday spaces—and Trooferz, a sports turf in Pune that’s grown into a vibrant community hub. I’m equally passionate about marketing—whether it’s positioning a product, telling the right story, or connecting with people who think differently. From conversations with plant heads to branding campaigns or community outreach, I enjoy creating value through clarity and communication. Always up for a coffee to explore ideas, collaborations, or the next big leap.
