Melvin Poh:
"Knowledge And Wisdom Shall Be The Stability Of Our Times."
I consider myself a modern philosopher-entrepreneur, one who not only ponders the deep-seated inquiries of existence but also applies such insights practically to build communities and platforms that elevate collective wisdom. I look for ways to craft an agora for bright minds to convene, share, and collaborate, thus enriching the intellectual landscape with diverse perspectives and ideas.
“I am on an exciting journey to broker and democratise knowledge in Asia. In my relentless quest, I am driven by the belief that real enrichment in life can only be attained through knowledge. It is with the light of knowledge that we may elevate ourselves and our society. Therefore, it is my absolute conviction that everybody should be able to freely acquire and equally access knowledge. I fully intend to achieve this goal in my life’s work.”

My Upcoming Book
I will soon be launching my first published book. This upcoming book is a very personal work culminating from years of deep introspection, critical reflection and rigorous research. Stay tuned for its release!
My upcoming book explores and addresses our existential experience of dwelling in the digital age as modern human beings. I carefully examine the nature and relevance of philosophy in this modern age. Contemplating our modern values and how we may perhaps apply renewed perspectives based on philosophy and leading research to our personal lives in order to best navigate the increasingly complicated times that we find ourselves in. My book will be available in both print through major book stores as well as through all digital avenues. I look forward to sharing it with you.
