Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the 'national importance' of the beneficiary's proposed endeavor. While the work was deemed to have substantial merit, the evidence did not prove that the beneficiary's individual contributions would have a prospective impact beyond his specific employer and its customers to affect the broader industry or nation as a whole.
