It is not new that mayor casino operator companies are interested on the new Japanese market that has been recently opened and that will have its first gaming venues opened in a couple of years. And Wynn Resorts is not is the exception.
That’s what Wynn President and CEO, Matthew Maddox, commented last week. “We have been quietly active in Japan for a number of years now. I’ve been dozens of times myself, building strong relationships in a country where trust and relationships matter,” he said on a conference call after releasing second quarter results.
“We believe that the Wynn aesthetic and our unrelenting focus on excellence and our commitment to thoughtful, immersive entertainment will resonate well in Japan, and we look forward to competing there,” he added.
In his June interview with Asia Gaming Brief, Chris Gordon, president of Wynn Resorts Development, who has been leading the company’s Japan effort, suggested that Wynn’s campaign would “pick up significantly” in the wake of the passage of the IR Implementation Act.
