The MitchelLake Group is pleased to announce that Singapore Partner, Jamie Gripton, has recently relocated to Spain to further expand our practice in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

For the past 20 years, The MitchelLake Group has helped launch and transform some of the world’s leading ventures and brands.
