Can't find any reliable, independent coverage of this site through the Google News Archive or a general search (probably because it only became active this month). The references given in the article consist entirely of press-releases, user-generated content, and a profile on a blog. Doesn't satisfy WP:CORP. Alexrexpvt (talk) 12:16, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Currently fails WP:CORP and WP:GNG. The existing sources aren't enough - AngelList and Yale aren't independent; Under30CEO doesn't have a proper editorial structure[1] hence failing WP:RS; the ECN article just has a sentence on the company; which leaves only CrunchBase. No results in Google News, and nothing obvious in Google search. It's only just gone live in NY so maybe it will become notable, but it's not there yet. --Colapeninsula (talk) 18:06, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete for now - I agree with Colapeninsula, the references listed are either brief mentions and the Under30CEO.com is a conflict of interest. Although partnering with Yale is interesting, the yale.edu team profile reads like an ordinary company website and would not be substantial. I didn't find anything through Google News searches either and a search at nytimes.com, nydailynews.com and yaledailynews.com provided nothing. It is probably too soon if it was launched only this month. I have no prejudice towards a future article if they become notable. SwisterTwister talk 03:25, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
