Angie Lau

Founder

Life Beyond School
Angie is the founder and CEO of Life Beyond School, an award-winning enrichment ecosystem that partners with educators, counselors, and families to develop the social-emotional and critical thinking skills every child needs to thrive. Grounded in research and designed to be implemented both at school and at home, Life Beyond School empowers children to build resilience, emotional fluency, empathy, and self-awareness—core competencies that underpin lifelong mental well-being and leadership.

Angie’s vision extends beyond children. The LBS ecosystem also supports parents, teachers, and professionals—recognizing that when adults strengthen these same foundational skills, the entire community benefits. The program is now being explored in school districts and corporate settings alike, as a model for human development in an AI-driven world.

An award-winning journalist and former global anchor at Bloomberg Television, Angie also worked with the Li Ka Shing Foundation and led an emerging tech startup. Her work bridges education, psychology, and the future of human flourishing.
