PadSplit's founder recognized as a transformative leader for launching the coliving company
ATLANTA, Dec. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- PadSplit, the country's largest coliving marketplace, today announced that its founder and CEO, Atticus LeBlanc, has been named the recipient of the Sig Mosley Entrepreneurial Leader Award, one of Techbridge's highest honors recognizing transformative leaders who redefine what it means to grow, innovate, and give back.
Named after Atlanta's "Godfather of Angel Investing," the Sig Mosley Award celebrates visionary entrepreneurs who balance risk-taking with sustained business success and community impact. LeBlanc was selected for his pioneering work in tackling the affordable housing crisis by launching PadSplit in 2017. With its coliving model providing greater flexibility and access to housing options, PadSplit has now housed more than 60,000 people with a median income of $27,000.
"It's an honor to receive an award named for someone responsible for shaping the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Atlanta and beyond," said LeBlanc. "This recognition may be in my name, but it's really a testament to our entire team and community of hosts, members, and partners who believe, as I do, that it's possible to do well, do good, and leave a lasting legacy of social impact."
LeBlanc was formally recognized at the recent Techbridge Awards celebration, amongst other category finalists and winners across a broad spectrum of tech leadership.
