Last action March 11, 2025 · Senate Read and Adopted
A Georgia Senate resolution honors Sig Mosley, an Atlanta-area investor, for his decades of work funding and mentoring startups across Georgia.

It honors Sig Mosley, an investor born in Jasper, Georgia, on the 25th anniversary of a major venture capital deal he was involved in, the $5.7 billion acquisition of Tradex by Ariba. The resolution recounts his career, including his education at Emory University, his work at several investment firms, his role investing in more than 145 startups, and his involvement with numerous business and civic organizations in Atlanta. It closes by directing the Secretary of the Senate to send a copy of the resolution to Mosley as a keepsake.
