weakly.  This is apparently a tech business with more durability than most, one that might be notable, but whose vague name stymies attempts to research it using search engines.  Adding "laser" does not help, because spatial coherence is a defining property of lasers.  And my attempt at crafting a more closely targeted search query failed.http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Coherent%22%20%22Watson%22%20%22laser%22%20source%3A%22-newswire%22%20source%3A%22-wire%22%20source%3A%22-presswire%22%20source%3A%22-PR%22%20source%3A%22-press%22%20source%3A%22-release%22%20source%3A%22-wikipedia%22&tbo=u&tbs=bks:1&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=np  So we're left with the text of the article itself, which is little more than a directory listing with a list of services offered, and does not really establish that this business, as opposed to its founder, has any "Notability in Wikipedia|long term historical notability" or a |significant impact on history, technology, or culture.  If someone who knows the field better can point me to sources that establish significance here, I'd be happy to switch
