AAO agreed the proposed endeavor lacked national importance. The evidence — employment letters, online certificates, the Professional Plan, and the advisory opinion — failed to show broader implications or prospective national-level impact. The Petitioner's 'Triad of Value' was vague jargon, and supporting materials focused on individual skills and past performance rather than the endeavor's prospective national impact.

AAO withdrew the Director's finding, concluding the record did not demonstrate a record of success in similar efforts, a model for future activities, progress toward the endeavor, or meaningful interest or support from relevant entities.

AAO agrees the endeavor has substantial merit but finds the record does not show national importance: the 2021 tax return showed only ~$80,000 in revenues and no wages paid, undermining projections, and projected $5.7 million in revenues would not significantly boost U.S.-Brazil agricultural trade levels of billions of dollars.

AAO disagreed with the portion of the Director's prong-two analysis that focused on the proposed endeavor rather than the individual.
