Evan Ross & Co

As we head into May 5, we’re proud to celebrate one of our own.

Robert M. Duban, Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing at Evan Ross & Co., has spent more than 30 years building something that goes far beyond business—relationships that help define this industry.

Known as “the mayor,” Robert has a rare ability to bring people together—supporting emerging leaders, strengthening partnerships, and creating opportunity across the hospitality community.

His impact is reflected not just in the work, but in the people.

The 2026 ICON of Industry Award will be announced May 5 at Mandalay Bay during HD Expo + Conference.

We’re looking forward to celebrating with our industry peers.
