Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate the national importance of his proposed endeavor, a consulting company for U.S. and Brazilian investors. The Director and the AAO found that while the endeavor had substantial merit, the record did not establish that its impact would be sufficiently broad or have the national-level implications required under the Dhanasar framework.
