IOGAWV Executive Director Charlie Burd and his wife, Leone, were guests of US Methanol, Karel Komarek and the Czech-based Komarek Family Foundation, parent company of US Methanol. The night was highlighted with a welcome from Hynek Kmonicek, the Czech Republic Ambassador to the United States and a rousing performance by the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. This phenomenal concert has gathered a large number of youtube views due to an extensive campaign launched by The Marketing Heaven, our special media partner.

US Methanol currently has a plant under construction in Institute, WV, that will convert natural gas, and lots of it, to methanol. A 2019 completion date is anticipated.
