From setbacks to breakthroughs,
a purpose-driven life
With the mindset of a warrior and the curiosity of an engineer, Dr. Prakash Mugali builds transformative technologies, empowers entrepreneurs, and inspires communities to pursue excellence with discipline, courage, and purpose.
A journey in Prakash’s words
My life has not been a straight line. It is a battlefield of experiments, scars,breakthroughs, and victories – each one sharpening my purpose!
I was forged by the discipline of Martial Arts, Zen & Warrior Philosophy trained by The Polymath, Hon. Major Dr. Deepak Rao (One of Asia’s highest ranked Instructors in Bruce Lee’s JKD, Pioneer in CQB & a President Awardee) and from a deep curiosity of engineering. From a small-town boy in Belagavi to a global deeptech entrepreneur building pioneering industrial microwave systems, my journey has been one of constant reinvention.
I learned early that life rewards those who dare to build, break, and rebuild. Over two decades, I created Enerzi, filed patents, built systems, trained fighters, mentored founders, raised a beautiful family and turned every setback into fuel for something bigger and meaningful.
I wake up to build, to teach, to fight complacency and to become a better version of myself.
Every morning, I wake up with a fire to create one more breakthrough, in technology, in business, in mindset or in someone’s life.
I look forward to shaping the future of clean hydrogen, building deeptech founders and empowering people with financial wisdom. My day starts with a warrior’s discipline and ends with a mentor’s satisfaction.
I am driven by the belief that India can lead the next wave of deeptech innovation. My work is a determined contribution to that mission.

The Multifaceted Personality
Dr. Praksh Mugali lives life as a multi-discipline athlete – moving fluidly between the stage, the ring, the lab and the boardroom.

He simplifies complex ideas.
As an MMA Fighter

As a Faculty at IIM Banglore

These dimensions don’t compete – they complement each other. Fighting as Zen Warrior taught him resilience, engineering taught him precision, entrepreneurship taught him creation, singing taught him rhythm, and mentorship taught him purpose. His strength lies in a rare ability to harmonise these roles into one identity:
a warrior-innovator with a creator’s soul.
Ideology rooted in purpose
His philosophy is straightforward: Discipline creates freedom. Courage creates opportunity. Creation is the highest form of prayer.
He views life as a dojo – you train, you fall, you rise and you continuously sharpen yourself. He intentionally embraces contradictions: a warrior’s intensity with a sage’s calm, scientific thinking with artistic expression, business acumen with spiritual grounding.
“I don’t chase success; I chase mastery. I believe in building things that outlive me, in empowering people to rise and in living with boldness, honesty and gratitude. My life philosophy is to transcend limits and help others find purpose, rise to their true potential.”
