Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that their proposed endeavor, opening a music school and cultural events business, had 'national importance' as required by the Dhanasar framework. While the endeavor was found to have substantial merit, the record did not demonstrate that its impact would extend beyond prospective students and clients to affect the industry or the U.S. economy more broadly at a level commensurate with national importance.
