Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that he met at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. The Director had initially found he only met the judging criterion. On appeal, the AAO determined the evidence for other criteria, such as awards, was insufficient because the awards were granted to the petitioner's company, not to him individually, and he failed to establish their national or international recognition.
