Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed endeavor was of national importance. While the endeavor was found to have substantial merit, the Director concluded its impact would not sufficiently extend beyond the local individuals it would serve. The Director also found the petitioner was not well-positioned to advance the endeavor and that, on balance, a waiver would not be beneficial to the United States.
