Underlying the transformation was the modern transportation system with the Metro de Medellín, cable car and escalators. This connected the comunas in the hills surrounding Medellín to the center and brought the inhabitants out of their isolation.

City of innovation
Medellín is a modern city, at the forefront of many areas, such as technology. There is even a Valle del Software in Medellín.
