Joseph Bismark
Deputy Chairman
As co-founder of QI Group, Joseph Bismark has played a key role in the company’s exponential growth, drawing from his background in spirituality, a result of his early education in an ashram.
Due to this unique upbringing, Joseph ‘Japadas’ Bismark is proficient in various disciplines, including various forms of martial arts, music, Vedic studies, and the art of Bonsai. As a 3rd Dan black belt in Taekwondo, he was even part of the Philippine national team.
In the early 90s he ventured into entrepreneurship when he started manufacturing figurines in the Philippines. It was around this time he met Vijay Eswaran. Together they grew a successful direct selling business before co-founding the QI Group in 1998.
A staunch advocate of healthy living, Japadas is a strict vegetarian, and has been a yoga practitioner for over twenty years. With this unique background and outlook on life, he has championed the QI Group’s venture into wellness and organic foods. He is also an accomplished speaker and a trainer on many disciplines. His training programmes on life management lessons range from attitude and character-building to achieving success and overcoming challenges.
A published author, his first book – the Gem Collection: A Compilation of Wisdom – features life lessons he shares through an eclectic collection of short stories and essays on his blog ‘Gems of Wisdom’. The book has received wide acclaim in Malaysia and the Philippines. His second book ‘Daily Gems: Everyday Wisdom’ was launched in 2023.
