Delete. Non-notable company. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 00:11, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The same arguments made in the first AfD are valid in this AfD. Well cited, multiple editors, well cited, google search reveals multiple hits. Sven Manguard Talk 00:43, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:CORP say that it must be have "significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources." This is not the case for the srticle. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 05:38, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. How much "significant" coverage do you want? The article cites five references, four of which seem pretty solid and even the fifth, based on a press release, goes beyond mere PR blurb. Google News reveals plenty of significant coverage, including references to funding from the EU and a visit by a Swiss Government Minister. There are 95 hits on Google Books and 61 on Google Scholar (albeit many are duplicates). Seems reasonably notable to me, and nothing has changed since the last (failed) AfD to justify deleting this time. Jimmy Pitt talk 14:50, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
