Sponsorship & Exhibitor Information

Get Ahead of the Hubbert Curve for the Peak Oil Energy Era

Show your customers, clients, and community that you're ahead of the curve with access to top international energy experts and advisors, up-to-date facts and figures, and "Plan B" smart response and mitigation strategies that translate into competitive advantage for you and better service to your market.

At receptions, lunches, breaks, exhibit space, and other networking opportunities during ASPO Week in Houston, Conference Sponsors will have unmatched exposure to business, civic, government, and academic leaders of the Peak Oil Energy Era. And with prime access to our ASPO-USA Conference Team, you'll get the help you need to direct the right message to the right target in the most cost-effective way possible.

You'll cover the Energy Patch with Conference Sessions on Reserves and Production; Substitute Fuels; Smart Policy Initiatives; Smart Money Strategies; a Natural Gas/LNG Update; a Net Energy Update; Mitigation Scenarios; Peak Oil & Climate Change; and updates on Peak Oil Reports from the GAO, National Petroleum Council, and AAPG.

Sponsors will get multi-media exposure and prominent recognition for their participation in the Houston World Oil Conference. Sponsors will receive display space on a large Ballroom Banner, in the Conference Program Packet, on collateral marketing materials, on the ASPO-USA Conference web site, and with special hotel signage at the venue itself.

ASPO-USA is a non-profit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization. Conference sponsorship allows us to keep registration fees low and accessible to students, teachers, civic leaders, and NGOs. Sponsorship also supports conference outreach efforts and public education initiatives.

General unrestricted contributions are generally preferred, but we understand that some organizations require that a gift be associated with a particular activity or item.  We are flexible and happy to discuss and tailor defined sponsorship opportunities.  For example, a sponsor may choose one of the following opportunities and receive verbal & printed mention in association with the sponsored item rather than one of the labels described above.  Additional sponsor benefits will be commensurate with the size of the contribution and similar to those listed above.
