The business plan's projections of 14 employees and $4.1 million in gross revenue over five years were inadequately supported, and even if accurate, would not constitute substantial positive economic effects at the national level.

AAO found substantial merit but not national importance. The projected 13 jobs relied on inconsistent full-time staffing assumptions, the HUBZone claims lacked corroborating evidence, the endeavor would benefit only direct clients rather than impacting the athletics industry broadly, and industry-level reports do not demonstrate national importance for the specific proposed endeavor.
