Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the 'national importance' prong of the Dhanasar framework. Although the AAO found the petitioner's proposed endeavor to have substantial merit, he did not provide sufficient evidence to show that his work would impact the fields of information technology and cybersecurity more broadly, rather than just benefiting his employer or clients.
