Elizabeth Holmes was once touted as the next Steve Jobs and the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire
A CROWD of reporters and Hollywood types, drawn by the drama and glamour of the event, are likely to jostle to find a seat in a courtroom in San Jose on August 31st for what may be the next, perilous act for a woman once touted as the next Steve Jobs and the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire.
But first will come the question of whether any juror can be found in Silicon Valley without preconceptions of guilt. Around half of the potential pool has acknowledged exposure to press coverage of the case. That is hardly a surprise. The story of Ms Holmes, who founded the company in 2003 as a 19-year-old university dropout, is an epic of Valley hubris. She brought glamour and charisma to the corporate world, adorning magazine covers as the subject of flattering features within.
