This company managed to generate a burst of PR content around the time it moved to the UK but lacks sustained coverage by reliable independent sources. Survived AfD in 2009. I can’t find any sources other than those provided, which are:

  • Refs 1 and 2 are to primary sources, establishing that the company has patents, not that it is notable.
  • Ref 3 is apparently a blog (dead link to Facebook)
  • Ref 4 is a brief blog entry that just links back to the company’s own ‘About Us’ web page.
  • Ref 5, 6 and 7 are interviews with the founder
  • Ref 8 is a blog
  • Refs 9 and 10 are the same piece, published first in a blog and then republished by the Washington Post
  • Ref 11 blog
  • Ref 12 reliable source
  • Ref 13 awards website.

Therefore despite limited coverage in a couple of reliable sources I don’t think this meets our notability threshold. Mccapra (talk) 07:43, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
