Story of Mrityunjaya Prajapati:
With over 16 years in the software industry, Mrityunjaya
Prajapati has built a strong reputation as a tech visionary and serial
entrepreneur. As the CEO of Kalp Studio, he is at the forefront of blockchain
innovation. His journey includes founding successful ventures like

India’s Growing Startup Ecosystem
India is now the third-largest startup hub in the world,
thanks to government support through initiatives like Startup India. These
programs simplify business processes, offer tax benefits, and provide funding
to new ventures. Mrityunjaya sees blockchain as a transformative technology for
sectors like finance and supply chain management. Kalp Studio is helping this
shift by offering a flexible platform for blockchain development that supports
multiple languages and provides low-code or no-code options, allowing companies
to focus on solving business problems rather than tech complexity.
Simplifying Blockchain for Real-World Use
At Kalp Studio, the goal is to make blockchain accessible
and practical. By simplifying development and offering tools for both beginners
and experts, they aim to bridge the gap between innovation and application. The
studio’s unique platform allows users to create and deploy blockchain solutions
without needing to be technical experts. This democratization of technology is
central to their mission, ensuring broader adoption of blockchain across
industries.
BUILD Bharat: Empowering the Youth
To foster blockchain talent, Kalp Studio launched the BUILD
Bharat initiative. This program focuses on educating and training students and
young professionals in blockchain technologies. Through hackathons, workshops,
and community events, it is building a strong base of blockchain developers who
can lead India into the future. By partnering with DAOs across the country,
BUILD Bharat is nurturing a new generation of innovators ready to bring
blockchain to the real world.
Kickstarting BUILD Bharat Tour
In January 2025, the BUILD Bharat Tour began with a
successful hackathon at Parul University in Vadodara. The tour continued to
Jaipur, Chandigarh, and Dehradun, engaging hundreds of students and
professionals. This year, Kalp Studio plans to visit 21 states and train over
100,000 individuals in practical blockchain skills. The tour not only imparts
knowledge but also encourages innovation by letting participants work on
real-world projects.
Upcoming Events in Jharkhand
The next leg of the BUILD Bharat Tour will focus on
Jharkhand, with events lined up at Amity University, IIIT Ranchi, Sarala Birla
University, and BIT Mesra from March 10 to 12, 2025. These events are designed
to provide hands-on blockchain training and development experience.
Participants will gain exposure to blockchain tools, technologies, and
practical applications, making them ready for careers in the growing Web3
industry.

Kalp Studio’s Focus on CBDCs

governments and banks on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs). Mrityunjaya
believes CBDCs represent a major shift in how money is managed and used. Kalp
Studio is helping build secure, compliant, and scalable systems that give users
more control while ensuring these digital currencies can integrate with
traditional financial systems seamlessly.
Enterprise Blockchain Solutions
Kalp Studio isn’t just focused on education—it’s also
creating advanced blockchain tools for businesses. Their enterprise offerings
include RWA (Real World Asset) tokenization, metaverse integration, and
IPFS-based secure storage solutions. These services help companies move beyond
theoretical blockchain uses and solve real business problems. With low-code
smart contract tools and accessible templates, Kalp Studio ensures even
non-experts can harness the power of blockchain.
Making Blockchain Practical
Mrityunjaya emphasizes that blockchain doesn’t need to be complicated. Kalp Studio’s strategy is to listen to businesses and meet their needs with flexible and user-friendly solutions. By removing technical barriers and focusing on solving actual business challenges, the company is helping blockchain move from experimental to essential in various sectors.
Introducing the BUILD Global Community
Kalp Studio also launched BUILD—an international platform to
unite developers, businesses, and thought leaders in blockchain and Web3. With
a mission to "Innovate, Build, Network!", BUILD aims to be a central
hub where anyone from the blockchain ecosystem can collaborate, share ideas,
and explore global opportunities. It’s a step toward creating a stronger, more
connected blockchain community.
BUILD Hackathon and Business Summit
To celebrate the BUILD initiative, Kalp Studio and
Maharashtra DAO are hosting a hackathon and a business summit from September 18
to 25. The event invites participants from various tech domains, with free
registration and a team format of up to four members. Winners will receive cash
prizes, certificates, mentorship, and networking opportunities. The award
ceremony and summit will be held at Radisson Chandigarh, with CXOs from across
industries in attendance.
A Community-Driven Vision for the Future

collaborative and empowered blockchain community. BUILD is not just a
platform—it’s a movement to unite stakeholders from all walks of the blockchain
world and equip them with tools, knowledge, and networks. As Kalp Studio looks
