Contested PROD; likely WP:UPE for a company that fails WP:NCORP. In reviewing the sources in the article, they don't meet WP:ORGCRIT. Most are WP:ORGTRIV about location openings, capital raises, etc.
([1], [2]). There is also a WP:PRIMARYSOURCE Q&A with the CEO ([3], marketing content from a company that installed chargers in AED Studios' parking lot ([4]) and a story that doesn't mention the company at all ([5]). Finally, the article also uses stories from a site that exists to promote Flemish entrepreneurs (see their About Us, which roughly translated says: "We are proud of entrepreneurial Flanders.... We are on the side of these entrepreneurs, to strengthen and encourage them, to ignite their entrepreneurial fire... Our news reflects the optimism of the entrepreneur."
This is obviously not an independent source. [6], [7]). A WP:BEFORE search turned up only press releases and more ORGTRIV. Dclemens1971 (talk) 01:19, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

- Delete, not notable. Coverage is trivial. Bobby Cohn (talk) 18:53, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
- This AFD was nominated at the same time with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Glenn Roggeman, both should be combined. IgelRM (talk) 21:28, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
- Nope, the notability guidelines that apply to the subjects are different. I agree that they are both non-notable but we should discuss them in different threads. Dclemens1971 (talk) 22:20, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - see extensive file on this topic here. Concerns cross wiki promo spam about two business men, Glenn Roggeman who owns a media complex, AED Studios, which hosts events and the other one, Jan-Willem Broere, who organises commercial media events Septimius Awards and Isis Fashion Awards which are marketed and promoted as prestigious award ceremonies. Done cross wiki with a extensive serial sock farm who promote the persons, the company and the events. Hoyanova (talk) 17:55, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
- Note to closer: Given the concerns raised above and at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Glenn Roggeman, consider SALTing page in the event this is decided to be deleted? Bobby Cohn (talk) 12:11, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
- I would support a preemptive SALTing given the cross-wiki spam effort. Dclemens1971 (talk) 03:30, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
