Notability
[edit]Since I think it likely that this page will be nominated for deletion again based simply on the previous deletions I think it worth setting out here why exactly I think this meets WP:CORP/WP:GNG. Specifically:
- - Coverage in Handelsblatt, Wirtshafe Woche, Suddeutsche Zeitung, Die Welt, on WDR (the German television channel), and in the book by Scharma. These all appear to be instances of WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS. There are other sources used in the article that might also be discussed, but these are the ones I would highlight at this point.
- - The coverage spans a number of months/years and as such is sustained coverage.
- - The coverage meets WP:AUD as more than one of these are at least national/regional sources.
I understand that previous pages were deleted due, at least partly, to the involvement of a COI editor, but I invite people reviewing this page to consider that, sometimes, corporations, even software start-ups, are notable, and not only because there is negative news about them. More generally, in this instance, we have a rare example of a successful European software start-up (albeit, as the SZ reference notes, one supported primarily by US investment), involved in a new technical field.

Contested deletion
[edit]This page should not be speedily deleted under WP:G4 because it is very, very, very obviously "not substantially identical to the deleted version" (it is completely different to the original page), and indeed is a page "to which the reason for the deletion no longer applies" as it includes new referencing. See above for my already-written keep rationale. FOARP (talk) 14:51, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
