“Congratulations to Grant Johnson on his new appointment,” said Melco Chairman and CEO Lawrence Ho.

“With his proven track record of delivering growth for the company I am confident that we can continue pushing boundaries as a global leader in innovative luxury entertainment offerings. This promotion represents Melco’s commitment to internal career opportunities.”
