Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed endeavor as a marketing specialist has 'national importance' under the first prong of the Dhanasar framework. The AAO determined that the petitioner's evidence focused on his personal skills and experience, which relate to the second prong, but did not demonstrate that his work would have broader implications for the U.S. beyond the scope of his immediate employers.
