Robert Goldstein stepping down as LVS Chairman/CEO, to be replaced by Patrick Dumont

Las Vegas Sands Chairman and CEO Robert Goldstein is going to be stepping down from his role, as of March 1st, 2026.

According to a company release on Thursday, Goldstein ‘will transition to the role of senior advisor’, remaining with the company ‘through March 2028’.

LVS indicated that Goldstein ‘will assist management with its government relations activities, efforts to pursue new physical development opportunities and the company’s gaming strategies’.

Goldstein joined LVS in 1995, prior to the opening of The Venetian Las Vegas – becoming the property’s president in 1999.

Goldstein was named LVS president and COO in 2014 and, upon the passing of Sheldon Adelson, the company’s founder, stepped into the role of Chairman and CEO.

“This company transformed the industry from a gaming-centric model to the integrated resort model and, through a different strategic approach in each market, meaningfully changed the tourism landscape in Las Vegas, Macau and Singapore. I’ve been fortunate to work with a great team of people over the years, and I specifically want to express my gratitude to Sheldon for his support and friendship,” noted Goldstein.

According to the company release, ‘Both the company and Mr. Goldstein intend for his senior advisor role to be his sole position with the company and its subsidiaries as of March 1st, 2026’.

LVS says that current President and COO Patrick Dumont will replace Goldstein as Chairman and CEO in March of 2026.
