Keep Does not violate criteria for speedy deletion, does not qualify for Wikipedia's reasons for deletion. I agree that they don't have reliable references but I also disagree that there is no Notability. Company's work seems legitimate. Reason for notability seems to be they committed to the advancement of brain science and nootropic research. The main approach is the cross-referencing of research in existing subclinical neural issues providing grant money to researchers and brain science theorists whose work may be outside the scope of normal grant funding. khocon (talk) 11:33, 15 March 2015 (GMT+6)

Delete. No evidence (such as independently and reliably published stories about this organization) of passing WP:ORG. Plausible WP:CSD#A7 speedy deletion as the article makes no credible case for its significance. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:17, 15 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Notability not established. --IO Device (talk) 23:29, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Clearly isn't notable. Isn't mentioned anywhere online apart from Facebook and their own website. Erik.Bjareholt (talk) 11:57, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - for all that I know from a search engine test, it could be a complete hoax (#1 is the article, #2 is facebook, and the rest is irrelevant). Tigraan (talk) 11:30, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
