Biography of a businessman who does not meet the general notability guideline. The sources provided are primary, unreliable and mention the subject briefly and no in-depth significant coverage found in multiple RS. Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 10:13, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

I believe the article does meet the general notability guideline - only businessmen of a certain reputation and stature would be invited to be the commencement speaker at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. As for in-depth significant coverage, the "Those Who Made It" episode is a 20-minute feature on Hassan's life produced by a major Indian television channel Zee TV. The accompanying article on India News also delves specifically into Hassan and his life. Granted some of the sources do not have him as the primary subject, but those sources are intended only to provide evidence for specific details included in the article.
