The Theranos scandal has dominated headlines, and in equal measure fascinated and appalled readers worldwide since John Carreyrou’s shattering report first broke in 2015. Theranos Inc., a consumer healthcare technology start-up, was once valued at over USD9 billion, and its leadership claimed it would revolutionise the blood-testing industry. On Jan. 3, 2022, Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes was found guilty of four out of 11 fraud charges.
At the International Directors Summit 2022 hosted by Institute of Corporate Directors Malaysia (ICDM), John Carreyrou, best-selling author of Bad Blood, shared insights and lessons of the Theranos scandal with audiences comprised of Board of Directors and senior executives.
