Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that her proposed endeavor, an environmental consulting company, was of 'national importance'. The Director and the AAO found that the evidence was insufficient to show that the endeavor's prospective impact had broader implications for the field or would provide substantial positive economic effects, thereby failing a critical prong of the Dhanasar framework.
