Billy Evans, partner of Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, is working on a new startup that seeks to deliver “human health optimization” through blood testing, according to The New York Times. In 2022, Holmes (with whom Evans has two children) was sentenced to 11 years in prison for defrauding investors, though she said in a recent interview that she remains “completely committed to my dream of making affordable healthcare solutions available to everyone.” Early Facebook investor Jim Breyer told The Times that his team had been asked to invest but declined “for many of the same reasons we passed twice on Theranos.”
