AAO agreed the endeavor had substantial merit but found the Petitioner failed to demonstrate national importance because the evidence addressed the industry or occupation generally rather than the specific endeavor's broader impact, and the recommendation letters made generalized conclusory claims without showing influence beyond the employer and direct clients.

AAO agreed the endeavor has substantial merit but found the Petitioner did not establish national importance because the business plan's economic and job-creation projections were unsupported, the record did not document the claimed $600,000 investment, the work would not extend beyond the Petitioner's company and clientele to impact the field or economy more broadly, and inconsistent descriptions of the endeavor made it un…

AAO found substantial merit but not national importance. The business plan's projections (19 employees, $4.1M gross revenue, $256K tax revenue over five years) were unsupported and not commensurate with national importance in a sector generating billions in revenue and employing 500,000+ workers. HUBZone claims were unsubstantiated, and broader-implications evidence (training, expert letter, reference letters) failed to show impact beyond direct workshop participants.
