Video exclusive: Bill Hornbuckle - from bus boy to MGM Resorts CEO

The latest GI Huddle exclusive is here – and it's a big one, as we speak to MGM Resorts International president and CEO Bill Hornbuckle.

BillHornbuckleCEO

As part of our US CEO Special, which will also feature print interviewes with 11 different CEOs across both Gambling Insider and Gaming America magazines, Hornbuckle spoke to us about his career in the industry, over two decades with MGM Resorts and how the operator has navigated the COVID-19 pandemic.

A little over a year ago, we spoke exclusively to then chairman and CEO Jim Murren in Las Vegas, and Hornbuckle tells us all about his experience of the transition from COO to succeeding Murren in the CEO role.

Watch below for an in-depth video interview, where Hornbuckle discusses every aspect of his gaming career, from heartfelt moments to major bets on future markets.
