The record fails to show how the business will impact the dental/wellness field beyond its own clients.

AAO agreed substantial merit was shown but found national importance was not established because the evidence concerned the aviation industry broadly rather than the prospective impact of the Petitioner's specific endeavor; teaching activities were limited to students/trainees, and economic projections lacked supporting detail.

AAO disagreed with the Director that the proposed endeavor was materially changed and that it lacked substantial merit, finding it does have substantial merit in business. However, AAO agreed with the Director that the proposed endeavor lacks national importance, concluding that the evidence addressed the importance of management generally and the Petitioner's qualifications rather than the broader national impact of his specific endeavor. Expert opinion letters were conclusory and did not concretely describe how the specific proposed endeavor would have national importance beyond the employer.
