* SME refers to Small and Medium Enterprises. An enterprise is medium size if both criteria given below are fulfilled:

More details on SME can be found here.
Group Membership for National Chapters from LMI Countries
InterPore actively supports the establishment of national chapters to foster national and regional communities of porous media researchers. For national chapters in Low- and Middle-Income (LMI) countries (as defined by the World Bank), we offer an exclusive opportunity for group membership at a significantly reduced fee, in addition to the standard benefits of an InterPore chapter.
Unlike regular institutional membership, which applies to researchers from a single university, this group membership allows researchers from multiple academic or research institutions within a national or regional chapter to join InterPore collectively. However, members must be affiliated with academia or research institutes—not industry.
There are two group membership options:
Small Group: 15 members
Large Group: 35 members
The membership fees are as follows:
