Fort Worth is honored and excited to host the SWS AAPG Convention in 2025. This special Centennial Celebration of the Fort Worth Geological Society will be held at the historic Fort Worth Club from April 26-30th. We will celebrate "Where Unconventionals Began" through history and technological advances kicked off in the Barnett Shale Boom and substantiated for decades since. We will have local legends in attendance alongside industry professionals, student programming, K-12 Teacher training, and of course, EPIC networking opportunities. 


As a sponsor you will get unique visibility among our diverse programming that is designed to maximize your reach and connect you to our community. In addition to the benefits listed for each tier, we will provide you with an event concierge to help you plan Happy Hours, Coffee Meetings, lunches/dinners or simply get you oriented within the city. It is our desire to highlight the amazing support we continually get from our generous community. 


Sponsorship Tiers work independently or can be achieve by stacking our Special Underwriting Opportunities. These unique opportunities are limited to a first-come-first-served basis so grab them while you can. They give you special branding on the particular event or material associated with the opportunity while also including you into the respective Tier Benefits you qualify for given your total sponsorship amount. For instance . . . choosing to underwrite the Convention Bags ($2,500) and the Coffee Station ($2,500) would give you exclusive branding on those two items while also qualifying you for the Wildcatter Sponsorship Tier Benefits ($5,000). 


So, take a look at the options and sign up quickly because you're going to want to be involved with this amazing event!
