Sos Paisa is a global network of people from Antioquia living abroad who keep their connection with Medellín and the region alive.
We connect Paisas around the world who want to contribute to the development of their city through knowledge transfer, opportunity creation, international cooperation, and the promotion of Medellín on the global stage.
More than a symbolic community, we are an active bridge between the diaspora and Medellín.
Founded in 2004 as an initiative of the Medellín Mayor’s Office and led by ACI Medellín, Sos Paisa strengthens the city’s international projection and channels the commitment of those who, no matter where they are, continue believing in its transformation.
Medellín moves forward when its people also represent it around the world.
Our goal is simple yet powerful: to find allies abroad who want to contribute to city projects through knowledge transfer, donations, or simply their love for Medellín.
Being part of the Sos Paisa network is more than a decision; it is a commitment to your roots, your identity, and the heart of Medellín that lives within all of us, no matter the distance that separates us.
Help build a positive image of Medellín to the world.
Connect Medellín with academic, political, cultural, or business leaders in your place of residence, fostering alliances that drive development.
