WeWork. Need I say more?
- PartiallyTyped 4y agoYes please, I don't have a datapoint regarding WeWork so I don't know what you are referring to.
- DoreenMichele 4y agoI've heard that before. I don't think it really compares. You go to the Wikipedia page for Theranos and it opens with "Theranos Inc. was an American privately held corporation..." WeWork still exists. It has a fraught history but did not go overnight from a multi-billion dollar valuation to zero. Neumann also had prior business experience, was older and had a business partner, so he had a lot more street cred for whatever hype he was selling than Holmes did. Holmes was a 19 year old college drop out with no track record who claimed to be celibate in her twenties due to her extreme devotion to her company. In reality, she was secretly living with an older man who was an investor in her company. I really don't think the two compare.
