Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national importance of his proposed endeavor as a project manager in the construction industry. The petitioner made general claims about the importance of green construction and STEM fields but did not demonstrate how his specific work would have a substantial positive economic effect or broad national impact. The decision also noted a material change in the petitioner's employer and job title after filing, which undermined his eligibility at the time of filing.
