Delete An investor who has a great reputation and is asked for their opinions on TV. The best claim appears that they were cited as the #1 "influential technology investor in Europe" by The Telegraph, but on closer inspection, it was a poll conducted by PeerIndex who conduct a variety of different polls that change every second week. For me, this person fails notability criteria, fails WP:BASIC.  HighKing++ 16:26, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete: An unremarkable venture capitalist. I'm not able to locate coverage that discusses the subject directly and in detail. The coverage is either PR driven or contains commentary by the subject: link. WP:TOOSOON -- the subject is not yet notable per encyclopedia standards. The nn ranking does not rise to the level of encyclopedia notability either. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:41, 23 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep: I'm in the process of updating this as well as the fund page. This is a meaningful investor as he and his partner have two of the largest UK successes in recent times, Deliveroo and Darktrace and they have substantially grown assets over time. Misterpottery (talk) 07:34, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment: the expansion was not really an improvement: . For example, https://www.bloomberg.com/research/stocks/private/ is a non-editorial directory, same for "He is also a regular speaker at technology events including the Milken Institute" cited to http://www.milkeninstitute.org/events/conferences/.   Being "chosen as one of the '100 coolest' people in European technology by Business Insider" is not an honour that confirs notability. The subject is still nn and it's WP:TOOSOON for an article.
