Non notable executive. The refs are the usual pr and notices, and none of them give substantial coverage. Not would one expect it, as the accomplishments are minor and the awards about ass minor as they come. DGG ( talk ) 03:21, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

Delete per WP:PROMO with a dose of WP:TNT. Sample copy:

:*"With over 15 years experience in marketing technologies through founding five startups and investing in 100+ since 1999, Nihal Mehta is a noted expert..." Etc.

Delete I am unconvinced he passes notability muster on the evidence, even given the sources Northamerica1000 found - David Gerard (talk) 16:45, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
Delete and Salt (given the past G11 speedy, which ultimately saw the article simply restarted now, therefore showing the sheer blatancy) as the nomination is exact with how this is entirely PR advertising and it's something we are quite familiar with, therefore that also means we make no compromises with advertising.
