Hot Seat Club - Business Case Study

"A charismatic founder, a star-studded board, and a $9 billion valuation detached from operational reality." Have you ever wondered how some of the smartest business minds and retail giants in the world got completely blinded by the hype? Join us for the debut session of The Hot Seat Club as we dissect the infamous rise and fall of Theranos, the blood-testing startup that became one of the most significant corporate governance failures in recent history. We’re meeting over drinks or coffee to deconstruct this massive real world crisis together. We will look at how the illusion was built, explore the corporate blind spots, and take turns in the "Hot Seat" to debate a critical question: If you were an executive stepped into the final hours of this unfolding disaster, what would your strategy be to navigate the fallout? You don’t need an MBA or a biotech background to join, just bring your perspective, a sharp analytical mind, and a curiosity for deep, problem solving dialogue. Spaces are strictly limited to keep the table small and the conversation great, so grab your spot early!
