Alpine Esports taps German gaming furniture brand ADEPT for its newest partnership, making the brand the official gaming chair sponsor of the branch. At the 2023 Le Mans Virtual, the two parties' relationship will result in an activation designed to promote the ADEPT brand to a broader audience of gamers. On January 14 and 15, several sim racing and real-world motorsport stars, including two-time Formula One World Champion Max Verstappen, will compete in the Le Mans Virtual Series final round.

The first carbon-neutral gaming seats are available on the market thanks to ADEPT. In addition to promoting diversity in gaming and esports, it also wants to share information on the growing issue of climate change.

“This is not only a marketing opportunity, we’ll also use this partnership to promote climate awareness in racing, starting with our first joint activation during Virtual Le Mans on Jan 14th/15th. Looking forward to a great year 2023 together[,]" said Johannes Preis, Brand Director at ADEPT.
