Theranos

Theranos

Theranos Inc. was an American privately held corporation that was touted as a breakthrough health technology company. Founded in 2003 by then 19-year-old Elizabeth Holmes, Theranos raised more than US$700 million from venture capitalists and private investors, resulting in a $10 billion valuation at its peak in 2013 and 2014. The company claimed that it had devised blood tests that required very small amounts of blood and that could be performed rapidly and accurately, all using compact automated devices which the company had developed. These claims were later proven to be false.

Early life and career

John Carreyrou was born to French journalist Gérard Carreyrou and an American mother. He grew up in Paris.[3] Carreyrou graduated from Duke University in 1994 with a B.A. in political science and government.

After graduation, he joined the Dow Jones Newswires. In 1999, he joined The Wall Street Journal Europe in Brussels.[4] In 2001, he moved to Paris to cover French business and other topics such as terrorism. In 2003, he was appointed the deputy bureau chief for Southern Europe. He covered French politics and business, Spain, and Portugal.[5] By 2008, he was the deputy bureau chief and later bureau chief of the health and science bureau in New York.[6]

In late 2015, spurred by a deep investigation carried out by Eleftherios Diamandis, Carreyrou began a series of investigative articles on Theranos, the blood-testing start-up founded by Elizabeth Holmes, that questioned the firm's claim to be able to run a wide range of lab tests from a tiny sample of blood from a finger prick.[7][8][9] Holmes turned to Rupert Murdoch, whose media empire includes Carreyrou's employer, The Wall Street Journal, to kill the story. Murdoch, who became the biggest investor in Theranos in 2015 as a result of his $125 million injection, refused the request from Holmes saying that "he trusted the paper's editors to handle the matter fairly".[10][11] In May 2018, Knopf published Carreyrou's book-length treatment of the topic, Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup.[12] Carreyrou also features prominently in a documentary about Theranos called The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley.

In August 2019, Carreyrou left the Wall Street Journal, opting for paid speaking engagements that are banned by the newspaper. For future plans, he commented "I want to keep writing non-fiction books for the second part of my career".[13][14]

In 2021, Carreyrou released a podcast called "Bad Blood: The Final Chapter" covering the trial of Elizabeth Holmes.[15]

In early 2023 Carreyrou joined The New York Times as an investigative reporter.[16]

By 2015, Forbes had named Holmes the youngest and wealthiest self-made female billionaire in the United States on the basis of a $9-billion valuation of her company. In the following year, as revelations of potential fraud about Theranos's claims began to surface, Forbes revised its estimate of Holmes's net worth to zero, and Fortune named her in its feature article on "The World's 19 Most Disappointing Leaders".

Carreyrou's well-researched stories, reported in the face of threats of lawsuits and efforts to pressure some sources to back off of their accounts, led to a reevaluation of Theranos' prospects among investors and have been followed by regulatory actions against the company and widespread discussion that publications and institutions from Fortune and The New Yorker to Harvard and the White House may have been too quick to hail Holmes, a Stanford dropout whose personal wealth at the height of her startup's rise was an estimated $4.5 billion, as a success story in the tradition of Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg.
