“Being recognised by Fortune for the third year in a row is not only an honour, but a testament to our team members’ unwavering commitment to deliver on our company’s plans and programmes,” said the company’s Chairman and CEO, Sheldon Adelson.
MGM Resorts and Wynn Resorts also featured on this year’s list.
With succesfull operations in Las Vegas and Macau, the company owned by Adelson is keeping an eye on Brazil. Should Congress approve the return of casinos, it plans to build two casinos in resorts, one in Sao Paulo, and another in Rio de Janeiro, in Barra da Tijuca. Adelson does not take away the beauties of the Olympic Park of Barra da Tijuca, now in the hands of the Union's AGLO, but which may be the subject of a good financial proposal of the magnate.
At meetings this year in Rio de Janeiro, city mayor Marcelo Crivella talked to Adelson about building a luxury hotel and leisure complex like the one the Group has in Las Vegas or Singapur.
"I want the new president Jair Bolsonaro to help me pass a super license to have a casino. I received a visit from Sheldon Adelson, president of Las Vegas Sands, and he is very interested in investing US$ 10 billion and generating 50,000 jobs”, Crivella said in December last year.
