"We believe this will be a good and positive partnership for the club and it reflects our continued growth.
"The fact that Genting has strong local connections in addition to its international dimension makes this a good relationship for the club and we anticipate that it will work well as we embark on a new chapter for Aston Villa."
Genting executive deputy chairman Peter Brooks added: "We are delighted to be partnering with a football club with such an esteemed heritage as Aston Villa.
"The Premier League is the pre-eminent football league with a vast international following - while Genting is a leading leisure and hospitality group also with a huge international presence.
"Importantly, we have been associated with Birmingham since the 1970s and look forward to strengthening our relationship with this great city.
"So this sponsorship is a natural fit and marks an important milestone in Genting's development as we continue to expand our presence both within the UK and internationally."
