I originally listed this for speedy deletion as grossly promotional and for copyvios. These aspects were removed from the article but the speedy was declined. I do not believe this organisation meets WP:GNG or WP:CORPDEPTH as I can find no substantial independent coverage, only press releases and social media. The article creator disclosed their paid editor status as a result of the speedy nomination, but the article remains a free advertisement for what seems to me to be a rather grandiose organisation.

Hi Cwmhiraeth, thanks for your commentary! I would like to note, that the part of your commentary related to the cited sources is not completely accurate. FOX News (reference №2) published a video interview with our Vice President Oliver Medvedik - it is not a press-release; The IDEAS.TED.COM publication (№1) is a full-scale publication too, not a press release. The reference №5 might be harder for you to assess as it is in Russian, but this is again a full-scale article containing several sections describing our activities, and citations from our President Keith Comito. In fact, there are no press-releases in our list of references at all, and the only self-reference is to our scientific research blog, which is legit, I believe, to describe our activities. The social media links lead to the external organizations' resources, namely, to the Singularity University Youtube channel (as they co-hosted the conference on aging with us), and to Kurzgezagt Youtube channel, as they had a joint project with us related to aging research. Again, this is aimed at letting the external sources tell more about our activities.

I hope that helps to clarify things. I am very much looking forward to your further notes, as this helps a lot to check if our page is good and to get more familiar with Wikipedia guidelines at the same time.
