Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed endeavor of coaching elite gymnasts had national importance. While the Director and the AAO agreed that the endeavor had substantial merit and the petitioner was well-positioned to advance it, the record did not demonstrate a broader prospective impact sufficient to satisfy the national importance prong of the Dhanasar framework.
