AAO found that the Petitioner's proposed consulting endeavor lacked sufficient evidence of national importance. The record did not demonstrate that the endeavor's prospective impact extended beyond direct clients, offered substantial positive economic effects, created significant U.S. employment, or had broader implications for the field. Personal qualifications and alignment with general government policy goals were insufficient substitutes for corroborating evidence of national-level impact.
AAO's prior statements about broader industry implications and economic impact were examples contextualizing why the evidence was insufficient, not novel mandatory requirements. Showing growth potential is not equivalent to demonstrating significant economic impact, and working in a nationally important sector alone does not establish the national importance of the specific proposed endeavor.
