Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that her proposed endeavor in the event planning and travel industry had national importance. The AAO found that while the endeavor had substantial merit, the evidence did not show its impact would be broader than benefiting her immediate clients, and projections of economic benefit and job creation were unsubstantiated and insufficient to rise to a national level.
