Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner materially changed her proposed endeavor after filing, from a nursing instructor to a business owner, which is impermissible. Additionally, the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed healthcare training company would have an impact rising to the level of national importance, as the evidence did not show its influence would extend beyond her direct clients or that its economic projections were substantial enough.
