Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed endeavor as a software developer has national importance. The Director and the AAO found that while his work developing and maintaining websites for a university has merit, he did not demonstrate that his specific contributions would have a prospective impact on a national scale, which is a requirement under the first prong of the Dhanasar framework.
