Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national importance of her proposed endeavor. While the Director acknowledged the substantial merit of her work as a pharmacist, the petitioner did not demonstrate how her specific plan to work in community clinics would have a broader impact on her field or the U.S. economy. A new business plan submitted later was not considered as it was a material change after the initial filing.
