The rise and fall of Theranos and its CEO Elizabeth Holmes is a cautionary tale for Silicon Valley. As the ongoing trial unfolds, we dive into everything that went wrong with the disgraced unicorn.

Welcome to EP.2 of The Control Room, a TQM original series where we break down what's hype and what's real in tech and media.

Today, we take a look at Theranos, the company that raised $1.4 billion to revolutionize blood-testing but failed to make a single device that works. Theranos was charged with fraud by the SEC in 2018. The trial began in 2021 with Holmes being indicted on wire fraud and conspiracy charges.
