“What happens in games, doesn’t stay in games”

— Dr. Ewa Antczak

Serious Play Esports Summit

Dr. Ewa Antczak presented at this year's Serious Play Esports Summit on: "The Psychology and Technology Behind Safer Gaming." Dr. Antczak shared valuable insights and practical strategies for parents and game developers to help keep children safe while gaming online. Attendees learned how behavioral science and AI technologies could help protect children by transforming toxic online environments into positive, emotionally safe spaces.

The inaugural Serious Play Esports Summit was a post-conference event that gathered key stakeholders from the esports ecosystem, including coaches, teams, organizations, educators, developers, researchers, and industry professionals. Hosted at MAGIC Spell Studios on August 16, 2025, at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), this one-day summit explored the evolving landscape of esports in education and competitive gaming.

XP Gaming Summit 2025

At the recent XP Game Summit 2025 in Toronto, Dr. Ewa Antczak took the stage to address a growing concern: the emotional risks young people face in online gaming spaces. Her talk highlighted how online toxicity — including bullying, harassment, and exclusion — is eroding the safe, creative environments developers work so hard to build. As youth spend more time socializing and expressing themselves online, the mental health impact of these digital interactions is becoming impossible to ignore. To tackle this, Dr. Antczak introduced Felixa, an AI-powered behavior assessment tool she developed that helps identify and shift harmful patterns in online communities. Backed by psychology and driven by real-time data, Felixa offers a unique way to monitor, understand, and improve emotional safety online.

The global response has been remarkable. Felixa is now attracting the attention of international organizations and institutions interested in supporting healthy digital communities. This growing momentum shows just how urgent and universal the need is for tools like Felixa.
