transformation of the city of Las Vegas from being a

destination for gambling to become a model of international

business and leisure destination.

His professional career of more than six decades has

companies, including the COMDEX fair that he developed for

the computer industry. Under his direction, COMDEX

became the largest commercial fair with presence in several

countries.

In 1989, Adelson purchased the Sands Hotel & Casino in

Las Vegas and, later, he built the Sands Expo and

Convention Center, the only private property that runs the

Convention Center in the United States.

In 1995, Adelson sold COMDEX for more than €657 million.

That same year he demolished the Sands Hotel & Casino to

build the Venetian for €1,140 million.

In 1999, he opened the doors of the Venetian, completely

changing the perception of Las Vegas and offering visitors

an impressive collection of services and experiences such

as worldwide recognized restaurants, first level

entertainment, shopping center, spa, gym and much more;

he virtually created a city within the touristic complex.

In May 2004, Las Vegas Sands Corp. opened the Sands

Macao, located on the Southeastern coast of China. The

Sands Macao was the first casino run by the United States in

the region and it laid the groundwork for the next phase of

Macao’s development. In 2007 the Venetian Macao opened

its doors to the public, beginning Macao’s transformation into

a business and leisure center.

Under his leadership, the company opened the Marina Bay

Sands in Singapore in 2010. This Integrated Resort follows

the business and leisure model that has become the

hallmark of LVSC and that guides its future projects.
