Keep Meets the criteria for notability. Numerous awards and there are (referenced) articles including Bloomberg Businessweek. Article could do with a majot cleanup but doesn't need to be deleted. -- HighKing⁺⁺ 14:39, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I attempted to edit the article and remove the promotional material and the irrelevent information on the company. I then realised that a lot of the "achievements" of the company were being attributed to Colin Day. On reflection I don't believe this article meets the basic requirements. -- HighKing⁺⁺ 14:24, 4 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that was my conclusion too. It's a non-notable page masquerading as a notable page. CerealKillerYum (talk) 02:06, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - the heading "Thought leadership" was a bad sign. Non-notable person, promotional article. Blythwood (talk) 17:23, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Promotional article with not enough evidence for notability. Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 13:52, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
