This week on Upstate Impact, we sit down with Matt Flood, founder of TLDR Syracuse, the local newsletter keeping you plugged into everything happening around Syracuse and CNY.
We talk about Matt’s background as an engineer, his time at TCGplayer, his current role at Forbes, and how those experiences helped shape TLDR Syracuse.
We also get into what it’s like getting TLDR off the ground while balancing a full time career, being a husband and father, and his bigger vision of keeping more advertising dollars local while helping Syracuse businesses reach the people in their own community.
Great conversation about building something local and where Matt hopes to take it.
