Christine Lu

Christine has spent the last two decades active in cross border business and investment trends between the U.S. and Asia. Taking an early adopter approach over the years has gotten her into some interesting spaces, sectors and projects over the years. Her network is eclectic by intention and her circles are diverse by design.

Christine is the co-founder of IP3, an ecosystem of creators, strategic partners and investors at the intersection of Web3 and the entertainment sector.

She is also the co-founder of the Cross Border Lab, a consultancy and accelerator of brands and companies into new markets that leverage relationships between the U.S. and Asia in various sectors that span decades.

She is a strategic partner to a number of venture funds and family offices that specialize in impact investing across sectors such as sustainability, technology, real estate, consumer goods and healthcare.

She also serves as an investor, shareholder or advisor to a number of early stage funds, startups and cross border focused companies.

Christine is known for being vocal and in action on issues that she cares about personally and it’s reflected in all areas of her life including the work she does.

She is an advocate for mental health awareness as a result of losing her sister to suicide in 2004. Suicide rates in America have increased 30% over the last two decades and being silent about it is not an option for her. Christine is actively involved in ventures and non-profits that promote wellness and mental health.
