Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. The AAO determined that the venture capital funding and a business award presented as evidence were received by the petitioner's company, not by him as an individual. Furthermore, it was not established that receiving venture capital funding qualifies as a nationally or internationally recognized prize or award for excellence in the field.
