No regional IDA is busier or bolder than the Suffolk County Industrial Development Agency, under the steady guiding hand of Executive Director and CEO Kelly Murphy. In today’s episode of Spark: The Innovate Long Island Podcast, Kelly joins Spark host Gregory Zeller to discuss her long public-service career, her biggest Island-wide socioeconomic victories, important housing progress and Suffolk’s latest industrial-development initiatives – plus her very special connection to one of Major League Baseball’s all-time greatest voices.
