Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that he met at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. The AAO concurred with the Director that the petitioner met the 'judging' criterion, but found the evidence for 'published material' was insufficient because the articles were about his products, not him. Furthermore, the petitioner's evidence for 'original contributions' did not establish that his work was of major significance to the field as a whole.
