MTCC-Asia is hosted by Shanghai Maritime University (SMU) in China. SMU's existing capacity, combined with the project's support through the creation of MTCC-Asia, is used to assist developing countries in the region to enhance their capabilities to address GHG emissions from shipping.

The Maritime Technology Cooperation Centre for Africa (MTCC Africa) is a Centre of excellence with the responsibility of building capacity for climate change mitigation in the African maritime shipping industry. MTCC Africa is part of the Global MTCCs Network (GMN) Project which establishes and unites MTCCs from five regions into one global network.

MTCC-Caribbean is headquartered at the University of Trinidad and Tobago (UTT). UTT is a multi-campus facility that hosts specialized programmes dedicated to developmental disciplines including maritime capacity building, energy efficiency, environmental studies and marine research.

MTCC-Pacific is being implemented by the Pacific Community (SPC) and the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) as a consortium of institutions. Both SPC and SPREP have a track record of regional capacity-building activities related to maritime safety and security, trade facilitation and port efficiency as well as pollution prevention from ships.
