ATLANTIC CITY — Mark Juliano, chief executive officer of Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc., has been named the new president of the Casino Association of New Jersey.
Juliano, who is keeping his full-time job with Trump Entertainment, will serve a two-year term as head of the association, the lobbying group for Atlantic City's $3.9 billion gaming industry.
Juliano, 55, of Haddonfield, replaces Joseph A. Corbo Jr., who had served as the association's president since 2006. Corbo is general counsel of Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa.
The move, effective Thursday, July 1, was announced in a press release. The term lasts for two years.
Juliano addressed Atlantic City's recent woes - and hopes for a successful return - in the press release.
"The past several years have presented a period of challenge for our industry as a result of regional competition and the national economy," Juliano said. "We believe that we have now entered into a period of great opportunity to change the fortunes and the image of the city and bolster our relationships with all legitimate stakeholders for the good of the entire state."
