- Biography
- Serial entrepreneur, Technical evangelist and Game industry mentor, University Lecturer and researcher, author of 3 university books about games, 5xFounder, 3xCEO, 4xCTO/Chief Game Officer, winner of many awards, 2x Exits. With roots in the pioneering days of the Demo scene, I began my journey mid 80ties as an assembly programmer on the iconic Commodore 64. As a hacker and trader, I contributed to legendary groups like Hotline, Fairlight, and NATO/NEC, pushing the boundaries of what was possible on early computers. My passion for coding and innovation caught the attention of a major game studio, where I transitioned from the underground world to professional development. This marked the start of a career that has spanned decades, fueled by creativity, technological mastery, and a relentless drive to push boundaries.

- Title
- Embedding the European AI Act the Practical Way for Developing Medical Games/Gamification
- Summary
- Who this is for: game developers, product owners and designers building medical or health-adjacent games for European users. The EU AI Act changes how you should design, implement and develop AI systems in software and products. This session is not a comprehensive legal review of the act, but rather focuses on policy theory (which ones work and fit your specific needs) and provides you with concrete steps you can apply immediately. What we’ll do in the session • Classify: a fast flow to decide whether a feature is an “AI system” under the Act and whether it’s low/medium/high risk. • Translate obligations: turn legal requirements into engineering and design tasks (logging & versioning, performance tests, explainability snippets, human oversight, minimised data collection). • Deliverables you can reuse: Actor Classifier, Risk Classifier, Actor x Risk obligation mapping and an audit checklist listing the artefacts auditors will look for (data sheets, test results, risk assessments). • Non-EU studios: What does it mean to bring your AI-based health system to Europe; practical options (appoint an EU representative, use an EU distributor) and what those choices mean operationally. During the presentation, we will work on hands-on cases stemming from real projects we've encountered in our research (e.g., a personalised rehabilitation coach or cognitive training). The goal is to map obligations straight to tasks for design, backend and quality assessment. Next to practical tools that you can directly use, there will be an extended Q&A session.
