Resorts World Las Vegas announced the formation of a Board of Directors, with industry veteran Jim Murren as the Chairman, and the appointment of Alex Dixon as its Chief Executive Officer as a key part of the Company’s plan to deepen and strengthen its leadership. The new team, with a combined 130 years of experience in the gaming industry, will accelerate the Company’s growth strategy and continue its mission to remain Las Vegas’ premier resort destination for unmatched luxury and entertainment experiences and unforgettable moments.

This announcement underscores Resorts World LasVegas’ path of evolution as the appointments bolster the property’s governance structure to help drive the go-forward business strategy.

The members of the Board assumed their roles on December 4, 2024 and Dixon will assume his position as CEO effective January 16, 2025.

“As Resorts World Las Vegas continues to establish itself as the premier resort destination in Las Vegas, we are excited to welcome this group of industry leaders overseeing and guiding the Leadership Team to deliver unparalleled guest experiences while fostering our commitment to compliance. With over 40 years of collective experience in the global gaming and hospitality industry, we are confident that Alex and Jim, alongside the Board, will help drive the Company forward in pursuing our strategic goals for years to come,” said Kok Thay Lim, Chairman and Chief Executive of Genting Berhad.

Industry veteran Murren will assume the role of Chairman, bringing a depth of expertise in the global gaming and hospitality industries. He previously served as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors at MGM Resorts, where he led the company through a period of expansion and growth. He currently holds leadership positions with Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority in the United Arab Emirates, Cirque du Soleil, and Playstudios, as well as serving as a trustee on Howard University’s Board of Trustees.

Dixon, a Las Vegas native, will assume his role following his tenure as CEO at Q Casino & Resort and Dubuque Racing Association. He has more than 20 years of combined global gaming, hospitality, entertainment, real estate, and banking industries experience across iconic and Fortune 500 businesses, including MGM Resorts International, Caesars Entertainment Corp., and Goldman Sachs & Co. Additionally, Dixon brings extensive experience in building winning teams, developing underutilized real estate, re-invigorating legacy brands, and driving clarity of purpose from the Boardroom to front-line operations.

“Resorts World Las Vegas has transformed the Vegas Strip with its unceasing focus on providing the ultimate guest experience, which is why I’m thrilled to join the team and help continue setting the standard for premier hospitality. The Board and I are excited to continue building on the strong foundation set by the Executive Leadership Team and driving continued growth and innovation to benefit all of RWLV’s key stakeholders,” said Murren.

In addition to Murren as Chairman and independent member, the newly established Board of Directors includes three additional, prominent members, two independent and one non-independent from diverse backgrounds:
