Sands China is one of only two integrated resort operators named in the DJSI World for 2023, alongside parent company Las Vegas Sands Corp. (LVS); it is also the only integrated resort operator listed in the DJSI Asia Pacific.

In the broader Consumer Services category, Sands China was one of only seven companies named to DJSI World, alongside LVS, and one of only three companies named in DJSI Asia Pacific.

“Our company made significant strides in the latest assessment, achieving measurable advancements in categories such as biodiversity, food loss and waste, talent attraction and retention, occupational health and safety, and human capital development,” said Dr. Wilfred Wong, president of Sands China Ltd.
