Benefits

MI represents its members where policies, regulations, standards, and technical frameworks are developed. Through our engagement with governments, regulators, standards bodies, and international organisations, members have the opportunity to contribute to the discussions shaping methanol markets.

Members can participate in MI's Committees, Working Groups, and Task Forces, helping define industry priorities, contribute technical expertise, and influence the future direction of the industry.

Membership is an opportunity not only to participate in the industry's development, but to help shape it. Leadership roles in MI's Committees, Working Groups, and Task Forces are primarily held by higher-tier members, providing opportunities to guide industry priorities, contribute to technical and policy positions, and influence MI's strategic direction.

Members can also regularly contribute to high-level industry discussions, represent MI at industry events and policy forums, and help shape the conversation on methanol.

The methanol industry is evolving rapidly. MI helps members stay ahead of regulatory developments, market trends, and technical advances through market intelligence, research, policy updates, and technical publications.

Our global team monitors developments across key markets, translating regulatory, commercial, and technical developments into practical insights for members. Exclusive member-only webinars featuring policymakers, industry leaders, project developers, technology providers, and market analysts, together with our weekly newsletter, keep members informed of the developments shaping methanol markets worldwide.

MI participates in many of the industry's leading international forums, initiatives, and partnerships, giving our members a voice where key decisions affecting the industry are discussed. This allows us to represent our members' interests, bring industry expertise, and contribute directly to regulation, technical standards, and market development.

Our engagement includes the International Maritime Organisation through our consultative status, the Leadership Council of the Industrial Transition Accelerator (ITA), the Maersk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping (MMM) as a knowledge partner, the U.S. Maritime Innovation Coalition, the Molecule Group, and the International Think Tank for High-Level Shipping Services in Shanghai's Lin-gang Special Area.
