Delete per WP:NCORP and WP:PROMO - sources lack WP:CORPDEPTH due to trivial coverage of capital transaction[s], such as raised capital, expansions, acquisitions, and hiring [...] of personnel, and sources, e.g. Forbes and Silicon Valley Business Journal, lack WP:ORGIND due to reliance on statements from people connected to the company for articles summarizing promotional announcements. An online search finds more overt press releases and trivial coverage. Also, Silicon Valley Business Journal is a product of American City Business Journals, which describes itself as offering "business leaders many avenues for making connections and gives them a competitive edge locally, regionally and nationally. ACBJ is the premier media solutions platform for companies that target business decision-makers", so appears to generally lack independence from the subjects of its coverage.
