Liu joins Wynn Resorts as a seasoned executive

Liu, who is currently working as an independent director, has a background in the Chinese and Asian financial markets, as well as the entertainment and hotel industries.

Eleven years of Liu's career were spent as a partner with Egon Zehnder, a worldwide leadership consulting firm.

Liu had previously served as COO of Anschutz Entertainment Group China, a massive player in the entertainment industry. Additionally, he established Three On The Bund, a high-end lifestyle area in Shanghai.

Prior to this, he served as managing director of Bank of America (Asia), assistant vice president for Union Bank of Switzerland, and executive director at CIMIC Holdings.

The Asia Pacific region is rich with business talent, and Liu's knowledge and insight into how to create memorable guest experiences in the luxury and hospitality industries would greatly benefit Wynn Resorts, according to a spokesperson for the company. According to the Wynn board of directors, "his perspective will offer an important perspective."

In the Asia Pacific region, Wynn Resorts runs the Wynn Macau and Wynn Palace Cotai properties.

As of 2027, Wynn Al Marjan Island will have opened, marking Wynn's entry into the Middle East and North Africa market. Among the many entertainment options planned for the future is a casino area, hotel, restaurants, lounges, spa, and more.

The new resort is being developed by Wynn in conjunction with Marjan and RAK Hospitality Holding, two local partners.

President of the new integrated resort, Thomas Schoen was appointed by Wynn in May. Schoen, a seasoned executive in the hospitality industry, will be in charge of the new resort's day-to-day operations.

The company will provide an update to the market tomorrow, August 9th, regarding its performance in the second quarter and first half.

Investors are keeping a close eye on how it does in Las Vegas, where competitors like Caesars Entertainment and MGM Resorts have seen flat or declining profits. In contrast, Wynn Macau, its Asian subsidiary, is expected to experience robust development as the region recovers.
