Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed endeavor has national importance. The AAO concluded that while the petitioner worked on projects with merit, the record did not sufficiently detail his individual contributions or demonstrate that his specific role would have a broad prospective impact. The petitioner's claims focused more on his employer's overall impact rather than his own, and lacked sufficient supporting evidence.
