Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the 'national importance' of the proposed endeavor. The AAO found that the business plan's projections for job creation and revenue were unsubstantiated and not credible. The decision concluded that even if the projections were credible, the creation of 43 jobs in five years would not have the broad implications necessary to demonstrate a prospective impact of national importance.
