  • SPARK Episode 31: Praveen Gorakavi
    2 Jul 2026

    Centamil AI is building AI-embedded microreactors that enable process industries to transform their facilities for higher-intensity workloads. The company recently launched its Hayagreeva HEx, a cold plate that enables data centers to accommodate higher density GPUs driven by the AI revolution. Centamil offers a robust AI layer on top of its physical infrastructure, which optimizes cooling parameters in real time to adapt to the conditions at a facility.

    We spoke with Praveen Gorakavi, Founder and CEO of Centamil AI, to learn more about why he sees cooling as a critical bottleneck to AI infrastructure deployments. We discuss how the Hayagreeva cold plate is improving the energy efficiency of data centers by relieving the burden placed on energy intensive air cooling systems. Praveen also shares what inspires him as an entrepreneur and how he balances his roles as both an inventor and a businessman.
