Shaping the Fourth Industrial Revolution: Inside Medellín’s C4IR with Catalina Restrepo

What happens when a city once defined by conflict becomes a
global hub for responsible innovation?


In this episode of Der Große Neustart speaks with Catalina
Restrepo Carvajal, Executive Director of the Centre for the
Fourth Industrial Revolution (C4IR) Medellín — the only C4IR in
Latin America and part of a global network created in
collaboration with the World Economic Forum.


From AI education and digital health to ethical GovTech and
climate-smart urban design, Catalina shares how Medellín is
leading Latin America’s tech revolution — and what it means to
build trust, inclusion, and public value through emerging
technologies.


A powerful conversation about dignity, systems change, and the
future we choose to create.
