Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found the petitioner met the criterion for lesser nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards. Although the awards were given to the petitioner company, the AAO determined that the beneficiary was so inextricably linked to the award-winning project that he could be considered a de facto honoree. Evidence, including letters from industry leaders, established the beneficiary's major and significant role in the campaign that won prestigious advertising awards.
