MESA CALLEJAS, Ramón Javier  e  PEREZ ROBLES, Sandy Paola. Export performance of Antioquia and institutional framework for its development: the role of Mipyme. Perf. de Coyunt. Econ. [online]. 2011, n.17, pp.123-139. ISSN 1657-4214.

During the period 2001-2010, the department of Antioquia, Colombia, doubled the growth of exports. This behavior was influenced by the strategy to turn the external sector a key driver for regional development through a wider range of products with high added value and increasing the participation of SMEs in the department's total exports. In this sense, one of the factors likely to explain this behavior has been the institutional framework has been promoted; among ''Medellín Ciudad Cluster'' Strategy and ''Programas de Desarrollo Empresarial Sectorial -PRODES-'', like experiences of productive integration and associativity, that have allowed for better integration of Antioquia to the dynamics of global markets. While these strategies are just beginning, appears to be consolidating Antioquia as the most exporting region of Colombia, contributing to improved regional economic performance.
