Objective: to determine the relevance of the internationalization of Antioquia introduced by the Departmental Government in order to achieve regional development promotion from the perspective of globalization and internationalization.Methodology: a literature review of the strategic plans and the departmental development plans between 2004-2015 was carried out. Programs and projects that were defined by the Government of Antioquia, in order to achieve a change in the development model for competitiveness and internationalization in the region, were reviewed.Results: between 2004 and 2015, departmental governments set up programs and projects for regional integration as a necessary foundation for generating internationalization opportunities in the territory. The Tripartite Commission, which is an intergovernmental body that is establishing itself as responsible for leading the regional policy of competitiveness, productivity and the internationalization of the Antioquia region, was formalized.Conclusions: although there has been significant progress, as well as attempts to establish strategic alliances between Medellin and Antioquia, challenges that go beyond the institutional capacity are presented. This has led to a "spillover" of the benefits of internationalization of Medellin to the municipalities belonging to Antioquia that are closest to the capital. In this regard, the greatest economic and strategic effort is made by Medellin, using the institutions that have been created for this purpose. Meanwhile, Antioquia takes advantage of those benefits through some of its municipalities that are closest to the capital. ; Objetivo: determinar la importancia de la internacionalización del departamento de Antioquia que se ha gestado desde la Gobernación para el logro de la promoción del desarrollo regional, bajo la perspectiva de globalización e internacionalización.Metodología: se hizo una revisión documental de los planes estratégicos y de los planes de desarrollo departamentales del período 2004-2015.
