The Colorado Science Conference is a one-day conference that provides professional development, regarding science content, education strategy, and research. This event builds connection and community while championing excellence in science and STEM education across our beautiful state.

Science education in Colorado thrives when we work together. From classrooms and labs to museums, nature centers, and after-school programs, science learning happens everywhere. These experiences spark curiosity, fuel innovation, and empower learners to think critically about the world around them. Supporting the educators who create these opportunities—both formal and informal—is essential to keeping that spark alive. Professional learning, innovative ideas, and sustainable resources help educators deliver the high-quality science experiences our communities deserve. When we invest in science education at every level, we prepare Coloradans of all ages to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future.

The 2025 Colorado Science Conference - Moments of Wonder: Finding Joy in Science will be held at the CSU-Spur in Denver, Colorado on November 7. We anticipate welcoming roughly 300 formal and informal educators, plus a wide range of commercial and nonprofit organizations presenting cutting-edge science and STEM resources.

The success of this event depends on amazing sponsors, like YOU!

Your sponsorship will include varying levels of benefits. See the details for each level to decide which sponsorship level is right for your organization or if you would like to customize a level to better meet your needs! We are so grateful for your dedication to science and STEM education! Please contact us at colosciconf@gmail.com  with questions or for additional information.
