GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Dr. Wilfred Wong, President and COO, Sands China

This week, the GGB Podcast features a discussion with, Dr. Wilfred Wong, president and COO of Sands China, on the opening of the Parisian earlier this year and other issues facing his huge Macau company.

The Sands China empire in Macau is vast and varied. The leadership of the company requires knowledge of all the elements of an integrated resort. And Sands China has multiple IRs. Dr. Wilfred Wong was appointed president and COO almost two years ago and marks the first time an ethnic Chinese was put in charge. Wong has presided over the construction and opening of the Parisian, the latest must-see attraction in Macau. He also discusses other challenges and opportunities in Macau such as the surging mass market, non-gaming attractions, and the opening of the Hong Kong-Macau-Zhuhai bridge. Wong met with GGB Publisher Roger Gros at his offices in the Venetian Macao in May.
