In a video message, Dr Miriam Adelson, co-founder of Las Vegas Sands – Sands China’s parent company – shared insights on career growth for women, urging them to pursue excellence through learning.

Grant Chum, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of Sands China Ltd, remarked that of the company’s 27,000 team members, half are women who play vital roles at work and, in many cases, in their families. He noted that the company is committed to fostering a corporate culture of mutual respect and equality, supporting female team members to thrive in diverse roles.
