Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that their proposed endeavor as a facility manager had national importance. The AAO agreed with the Director that while the endeavor had substantial merit, the petitioner did not demonstrate that his work would have broader implications for the field or significant positive economic effects beyond the companies he might work for, as required under the Dhanasar framework.
