Japan – Sands lays out parameters for local partner in Yokohama

George Tanasijevich, Managing Director of Global Development bei Las Vegas Sands, sagte, dass das integrierte Resort für Yokohama ein ikonischer Teil der Skyline der Stadt werden sollte, so wie es Marina Bay Sands in Singapur getan hat.

Speaking at an event in Yokohama promoting the 1st Japan IR Expo in Yokohama, to be held in January, Mr. Tanasijevich said: “I want to create entertainment not yet seen before. I want to make a Yokohama a place I want to visit over and over again. I want to build an iconic building like MBS. However, it should be a building completely different from MBS and other IRs. I want it to be unique, complementing and integrating with existing infrastructure. For that purpose, I want a Japanese partner and develop a business understanding of what is needed in the area. I hope to be a welcome presence and enjoy growth along with Japanese business.”

“I want to collaborate with residents and take it in the right direction,” he added. “Perhaps we will all be able to see the results we have achieved in Singapore. I want to use that experience to create an amazing IR in Yokohama.”
