The Blood-Testing Startup Founded By Elizabeth Holmes’ Partner

Billy Evans, the partner of disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, has launched a new blood-testing startup named Haemanthus. The venture immediately draws comparisons to the former billion-dollar company that collapsed amid fraud allegations.

Cofounders Raise Questions

Forbes reporting reveals that Haemanthus was cofounded by Lauren Friedman Stat, a Palantir board member and longtime friend of Holmes, along with her physician husband David Stat. While the startup claims it's not 'Theranos 2.0,' these connections have raised eyebrows in the industry.
