Las Vegas Sands Corp (LVS) has confirmed the appointment of Patrick Dumont as its new Chairman and CEO, effective 1 March 2026.
Dumont, currently President and Chief Operating Officer, will succeed long-time LVS executive Robert Goldstein in the role, with Goldstein to become a senior advisor to the company through March 2028. His transition away from the top job had originally been announced in March last year, with Dumont tapped as his likely successor at the same time.
Dumont has also been appointed Chairman of the company’s Macau subsidiary, Sands China Ltd.
“It is a true honor for me to serve as chairman and CEO of this iconic company founded by one of the industry’s greatest visionaries,” Dumont said. “Under the leadership of Sheldon Adelson and Rob Goldstein, Sands has reached tremendous heights, and I welcome the opportunity to build on that legacy in the years ahead. I am excited about our company’s future and look forward to getting started in this new role.”
Dumont has been a member of the LVS Board of Directors since 2017 and was appointed President and COO in January 2021. He joined the company in 2010 and, LVS explained, has focused on creating long-term growth for the business and its stakeholders in roles with responsibility for operations, properties and capital allocation strategy.
The company noted that, under Dumont’s leadership, it has undertaken transformative investment programs in Macau and Singapore to elevate its product offerings, enhance customer experience and increase long-term earnings potential. He has also driven the company’s new US$8 billion Marina Bay Sands expansion project which broke ground in July 2025.
“We are fortunate to have the best assets in the best markets in our industry,” Dumont continued. “Our core leadership team has been together for many years and we are highly focused on maximizing ongoing investments in our properties, people and local communities. Through our more than 41,000 deeply dedicated Team Members and our priority on delivering unparalleled experiences for discerning leisure and business guests, we remain focused on creating positive economic impact for our host regions and strong returns for our shareholders.”
