The city of Albuquerque is working with a number of local partners to woo Google, including the University of New Mexico, Central New Mexico Community College, Sandia National Laboratories, Kirtland Air Force Base, the Albuquerque Public Schools and the Public Service Co. of New Mexico.

City officials said the super speedy network would serve as an engine for business and economic development. And Albuquerque has a lot of high tech industry, they add.
