Who's asking

Hi, I'm Gergő.

I'm a Hungarian entrepreneur. I write an AI newsletter, and I have 9K+ followers on LinkedIn.

This MacBook is my newest experiment, and I'm documenting every step of it.

Everyone is selling ad space on their MacBook right now.

So I decided to do it too.

The difference?

I'm taking mine to Valencia Digital Summit.

I split the back of my Midnight MacBook Air into 12 sponsorship spots, with a total goal of €10,000.

Every sponsor becomes part of the challenge, gets introduced on my social media, and travels with me to VDS.

FAQ

Good questions.

01What exactly am I buying?

One of 12 exclusive positions on the back of my Midnight MacBook Air. You get your logo as a physical sticker in that position, visibility while I carry and use the MacBook at Valencia Digital Summit 2026, an individual sponsor introduction on my social media, a place in the campaign content, and a listing with your website link on this site. It doesn't include guaranteed impressions, views, leads or sales.

02Who can sponsor?

Businesses: companies, startups, freelancers and creators buying for their business. I don't accept crypto, adult or gambling companies.Who can buy a spot

03How does payment work?

Securely through Stripe (card, Apple Pay or Google Pay). Clicking an open spot takes you straight to Stripe's checkout page.

04Do I get an invoice? Is VAT added?

You get an electronic invoice to the billing details you enter at checkout. No VAT is added: I'm a VAT-exempt sole proprietor in Hungary (alanyi adómentes). If you're a VAT-registered business elsewhere in the EU, the reverse charge may apply.Price, payment and invoice

05Can I cancel or get a refund?

Payments are final, with one exception: if Valencia Digital Summit 2026 is cancelled or postponed, or I can't make it there, every sponsor gets 100% of their money back.Cancellations and refunds

06What happens after payment?

Right after paying, you send me your logo, company name, website and a few details for your introduction. The page after checkout shows how, and your sticker's exact size. I review everything, put your logo on the board, print your sticker, put it on the MacBook and prepare your introduction. If anything needs a change, I'll email you.

07Where will my logo appear?

On the real MacBook in the position you bought, on the digital MacBook and the sponsor wall on this site (linked to your website), and in the campaign content whenever the MacBook is on camera.

08How long will it stay on the MacBook?

From the moment it's placed until the end of Valencia Digital Summit 2026.

09Will my brand be featured on social media?

Yes. Every sponsor gets an individual introduction on my social media, and the MacBook with your logo on it appears in the campaign content: launch, reveals, progress updates, sticker production, the trip to Valencia and VDS itself. I don't guarantee view or impression numbers.

10What logo format should I provide?

A logo with a transparent background, as PNG, WebP or SVG, up to 4 MB. It goes straight onto the dark Midnight lid, so a white or light version works best, and SVG prints sharpest. After paying, you'll see your sticker's exact size in millimetres and the pixels your file needs.

11Can competitors sponsor the same MacBook?

Every position is exclusive: one brand per spot, and nobody can buy yours once it's claimed. If category exclusivity matters to you, email me before you buy.

12What happens when all spots sell out?

Then the challenge is won: the whole back of the MacBook sold before VDS. The board on this page shows all 12 sponsors, and the story continues with sticker production, the trip to Valencia and the summit.

13Is this affiliated with Apple or Valencia Digital Summit?

No. This is an independent sponsorship project. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Apple or Valencia Digital Summit. The Main Sponsor sticker covering the Apple-logo area doesn't imply any connection with Apple.
