Raised $945 million for a blood analysis machine that didn't work.
Elizabeth Holmes dropped out of Stanford at age 19. Before leaving, she had already convinced a professor to fund her idea.
The idea: a small device capable of performing hundreds of medical tests from a single drop of blood, without the need for draws or laboratories. A box the size of a computer.
She called it Edison.
She named her company Theranos.
By 2013, Holmes had raised $945 million from investors.
Theranos was valued at $9 billion.
Holmes owned 50%.
At age 30, her paper net worth reached $4.5 billion. She appeared on the covers of Fortune, Forbes, and Time.
Fortune described her as the next Steve Jobs.
She wore a black turtleneck sweater every day.
She had undergone surgery to lower the pitch of her voice and project more authority.
