From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Caesars Entertainment Corporation is a prominent American gaming company that owns and operates over 50 casinos and hotels, along with seven golf courses under several brands. It is one of the largest gaming companies in the world. The company's headquarters are located in Reno, Nevada, with major offices in Las Vegas, Nevada. The corporation was formed in 1990 as a subsidiary of Harrah's Entertainment, which later took on the Caesars name to capitalize on the brand's widespread recognition.

History[edit | edit source]

The origins of Caesars Entertainment Corporation trace back to the opening of Caesars Palace, a luxury hotel and casino in Las Vegas that opened its doors on August 5, 1966. The success of Caesars Palace was unparalleled, setting the standard for future luxury casinos in the city. Over the years, the company expanded by acquiring and developing new properties across the United States and internationally.

In 2005, Harrah's Entertainment acquired Caesars Entertainment, Inc., creating the world's largest gaming company. The acquisition included the renowned Caesars, Harrah's, and Horseshoe brand names. Following the acquisition, the company focused on integrating the various brands and properties under one unified corporate identity.

In 2010, the company underwent a rebranding, changing its name from Harrah's Entertainment to Caesars Entertainment Corporation. This change was part of a strategy to leverage the more globally recognized Caesars brand. The company continued to grow, both through expansions in the United States and moves into international markets, including Canada, Egypt, and South Africa.
