GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Bill McBeath, President & CEO, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas

This week the GGB Podcast features a discussion with Bill McBeath, the president and CEO of the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, on how he has turned around that struggling property by balancing gaming and non-gaming revenues.

As someone who has spent his entire career on the Las Vegas Strip, the new owners of the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas could not go wrong when they chose former MGM executive Bill McBeath to lead the property. And McBeath has delivered. With a new emphasis on developing a quality gaming product to go along with the unparalleled non-gaming attractions, McBeath has increased revenues—and profits—at the Cosmopolitan. With a new CG Technologies’ sports book, revitalized restaurants and a revamped entertainment policy, McBeath is doing what he does best in the neighborhood he knows like the back of his hand. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros in his office at the Cosmopolitan in December.
