About Me

Lawrence Ho controls Nasdaq-listed casino operator Melco Resorts via Hong Kong-listed Melco International Development. His partnership with Australian billionaire James Packer, Melco Crown, ended in 2017 after developing four casinos. Melco Resorts runs three casino-resorts in Macau plus the Mocha chain of slot machine clubs and City of Dreams Manila. The company has also expanded into Europe, opening in 2023 a $660 million hospital and gaming complex in Cyprus. EV maker Vinfast, controlled by Vietnam's richest man Pham Nhat Vuong's Vingroup, merged with Ho's Black Spade in a $23 billion SPAC listing on Nasdaq in 2023.
