Why Join MTI

MTI's Unique Advantage

Engineering societies have seen membership losses of 20-30% from 1996 to 2002*. Over the same period, MTI's company membership has grown 30%! What is special about MTI? Unlike most other technical societies, MTI has direct access to senior technology people in the member companies, and money to fund technology projects. With these resources, MTI identifies and delivers what experts in member companies perceive as valuable to their companies. With this focus on responsiveness and value, companies readily see the value of an MTI membership at a fraction of the cost of a technical person. The result has been continued growth in MTI's membership and technical program. With MTI's responsiveness and adaptability to the process industries' changing business environment, we see increased strength, growth, and value delivery for MTI in the future.
