Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes settled fraud charges brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday, neither admitting nor denying that she and former company president Ramesh Balwani raised $700 million in investments by repeatedly lying about the company’s performance. Balwani is fighting the charges in court. We’ll discuss the charges against Theranos and how they might affect Silicon Valley.
