Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to demonstrate that her proposed endeavor, a training and development consultancy for IT and STEM professionals, had national importance. The AAO found that while the endeavor had merit, the Petitioner did not provide sufficient objective evidence to show her firm's potential prospective impact would be national in scope. Her business plan's projections for job creation and revenue were deemed unsupported and insufficient to establish a substantial positive economic effect on a national level.
