Nomination for speedy

This appears to be a cut and paste but I don't have a source. He has been appointed a US Government presidential expert commission and seems to be a CEO so has some assertions of notability. Needs a thorough cleanup and wikify. Capitalistroadster 10:55, 26 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Prakash Puram was appointed to President George W. Bush's expOrt council for the last 3 years of Bush's Presidential term, and Prakash Puram is the former CEO and President of the now-out-of-business iXmatch Inc (see sources below). This business was formerly located at www.ixmatch.com, a domain name that is now for sale. iXmatch at one time had about 25 employees, but after several layoffs, employee paycuts/executive pay raises, and legal troubles, it went out of business sometime between 2004 and the present date.

This biography is completely slanted toward Prakash Puram's positive accomplishments and does not cover his negative actions. Dorthea Glenn (talk) 17:40, 10 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

I think this info is outdated and incomplete

"President" Bush is no longer the president, so obviously Mr. Puram cannot be a member of Bush's export council any longer.

Also, I believe "President and CEO of iXmatch" is outdated/incorrect because iXmatch.com no longer exists and I believe the company has gone out of business. ^[1] See also ^[2] This page shows that iXmatch is an inactive company: ^[3] This is DEFINITELY a cut-and-paste out of the iXmatch standard corporate literature and web pages. Unless we want to publish the negative things about Puram and iXmatch, I recommend simply deleting this entry post-haste. Dorthea Glenn (talk) 23:22, 26 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
