Not necessarily related to City Council but definitely civic related: Global tech firm Mphasis to set up its Canadian HQ in Calgary, creating 500 to 1,000 jobs and hopefully taking up some empty office space as well.

India-based Mphasis has formed a partnership with the University of Calgary and the provincial government to establish the Quantum City Centre of Excellence, which is intended to become a hub for companies pursuing the commercial development of quantum technologies, according to a release.
"Thanks to the people and technology cultivated at Quantum City, Calgary's economy will grow and diversify. Quantum technologies often sound like science fiction today, but they will sound like paycheques tomorrow," said U of C president Ed McCauley.
"This is how great research universities improve their community, and it's a great day for UCalgary."
The university and Mphasis will work together on the development of an AI-driven personalized learning experience.
The Calgary operation will create 500 to 1,000 jobs over the next two years, the release said.
