Good on Nenshi and the CED to be working hard on this. It would be a great way to boost the economy. Hope to see more.

This week, Moran and her team returned to visit San Francisco and Silicon Valley.

​This time she brought along Mayor Naheed Nenshi and Alberta's Economic Development Minister Deron Bilous.

Nenshi said one company is prepared to set up in Calgary.

"This particular company was someone who had never really even heard of Calgary last month and over the course of the last three weeks, we met them here," he said. "They came up to visit. They started scoping out places. And when we met them yesterday, they said: 'Have you got the lease with you so that we can sign it?'

"Business moves fast here."
