LOS ANGELES, CA (October 15, 2024) — Mission, a leading US-based Amazon Web Services (AWS) Premier Tier Partner, has announced the return of Glenn Grant as Senior Vice President of Professional Services. Grant’s appointment reinforces Mission’s dedication to enabling customers with cloud and AI solutions on AWS and positioning Mission to further deliver cutting-edge services that drive measurable business outcomes for its customers.
Glenn Grant, founder of G2 Tech Group—a company acquired by Mission in 2018—brings over 25 years of experience in IT and outsourced services. A pioneer in managed services in the early 2000s, Grant has a proven track record of transforming businesses and driving growth.
Since the acquisition, Grant has served as Mission's advisor and board member. At the same time, Grant worked as a business coach and entrepreneur advisor, helping tech companies increase their business value and build strong leadership teams. This experience in scaling businesses and working with private equity-backed ventures is invaluable as Mission works to grow and expand its services.
"We are thrilled to welcome Glenn Grant back to Mission as our SVP of Professional Services," said Ted Stuart, Mission's President and COO. “Glenn's extensive expertise, entrepreneurial background, and deep understanding of our core values will be instrumental in elevating our AWS initiatives and enhancing our ability to drive customer success."

I believe his leadership will drive innovation and results for AWS customers, including us at the Celtics.”
"Leading Professional Services is an exciting opportunity to work with an incredibly talented team of cloud, DevOps, and AI professionals," said Glenn Grant. "The advancement of AI technologies, coupled with our strong partnership with AWS, presents huge opportunities for our customers to achieve things they couldn’t before with tools on AWS. It's exciting to be at the forefront of this industry, helping our customers move AI from experimentation to actual workloads on AWS."
As SVP of Professional Services, Grant will lead the team in implementing cutting-edge solutions and best practices to support Mission's growing customer base. He will focus on scaling the professional services organization to meet the increasing demand for AI and cloud services. "We're taking what we've learned over the last few years, especially in AI, machine learning, and data operations, and working to level up our already rock-solid cloud and DevOps offerings," Grant explained.
Grant’s role reinforces Mission's commitment to reinvesting in AWS technologies and growing customer workloads on the AWS platform. This strategic direction aligns with Mission's goal of continually enhancing its service offerings to meet the evolving needs of its cloud customers.
