Clash of the tech titans: UK's biggest ever fraud trial pits 'Britain's Bill Gates' against top US businesswomen
At the height of his powers, tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch was celebrated as one of the most brilliant businessmen this country had ever seen, frequently described as Britain's answer to Microsoft founder Bill Gates. The son of a nurse and a fireman from Essex, he rose from a modest background to the pinnacle of riches and acclaim, thanks to his abilities as a scientist and entrepreneur. Now, in a dramatic showdown with Meg Whitman, one of the foremost female executives in the US, he is accused of being a fraudster on an epic scale – allegations he vehemently denies, claiming he is the victim of a cynical campaign to trash his reputation.
In a vicious High Court battle – the biggest fraud trial in English legal history – he is pitted against the might of US giant Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), of which Whitman is a former chief executive, which is suing him and his former finance chief, Sushovan Hussain, for £3.8billion damages. Lynch is counter-suing for sums likely to run into hundreds of millions of pounds for payments he says he missed out on and investments he claims were lost as a result of HPE's accusations. It is a galling turn of events for Lynch, who also faces extradition to the US on fraud charges and a long prison term if found guilty. Until he became embroiled in the confrontation with HPE, his career had seemed an unalloyed success.
