Businessman from Antioquia (Medellín, 1884 - May 6, 1956). Gonzalo Mejía was a pioneer in Colombia, at the beginning of the 20th century, of very avant-garde companies and projects for his time: airlines, international aviation, airports, water gliders, cinema production and film distribution, fleets of urban cabs, roads to the Darién jungle; that is why he has been identified as the "dream maker". He did not have to amass a fortune; Luis Mejía Santamaría, his father, did it for him, actively trading with Jamaica. His other uncles, most of them unmarried and without descendants, also inherited substantial fortunes. As a result, he was able to dedicate all his time to materializing his dreams.
