  • Keep - Thanks JJMC89 for giving this article a chance to be discussed! I personally think the article meets NBIO's basic requirements, with multiple journalistic articles offering coverage of Reza Izad's CEO role within Studio71 (formerly known as CDS) bringing "a revolution of MCN networks". In addition to what is already in the article:

ProSiebenSat.1 Group-backed multichannel network Studio71 has named a new management team to take over from founders Sebastian Weil and Ronald Horstman, with US chief Reza Izad to become global CEO.
YouTube wants to be TV, but it’s not the same - Studio71 CEO Reza Izad explains the differences between YouTube and traditional TV on Recode Media. + Full transcript: YouTube star manager Reza Izad of Studio 71 on Recode Media
From the Big Chair: Reza Izad + Cornering CDS’s Reza Izad at CES
In response to JJJMC89's argument that "Izad has received coverage related to his notable company but not in-depth about himself outside of the many detailed interviews", I think NBIO's basic requirements clearly address the concern: "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability."; lengthy interviews and articles discussing the industry-changing impacts of Izad's business decisions cannot possibly be considered "trivial". (Disclosure, I was asked by a Studio71 contractor to try to cleanup the article, but I would not compromise my integrity and defend any article which I do not believe honestly meets Wikipedia's inclusion policies.)
