Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found the petitioner satisfied at least three evidentiary criteria, contrary to the Director's initial finding of only one. The AAO determined the petitioner demonstrated receipt of a nationally recognized award, made original business contributions of major significance, and served in a leading or critical role. Based on the totality of the evidence, the AAO concluded the petitioner had demonstrated sustained national acclaim and qualified for the classification.
