The 2023 G4C Festival included talks, discussion, demos, and hands-on experiences of gaming technologies that can lead to positive change in society.
But the past five years have seen particularly accelerated growth under the leadership of Susanna Pollack, who has served as President of G4C since 2015. The festival was already growing from year-to-year as an in-person event until 2020. But then something happened that year in 2020 that rhymes with “Oh-vid-19-and-emic.”The Covid-19 pandemic forced many things including the G4C Festival to go virtual.
Pollack spoke of “new opportunities presenting themselves. Foundations, companies, and funding agencies wanted to help people. New projects emerged. For example, we started a project with Nobel Peace Center.” Another example is MyopiaX, a smartphone application developed by Dopavision. The app when used in concert with a virtual reality headset allows people to play games that generate light patterns that may stimulate dopamine release in their retina. This app is undergoing a clinical trial to determine how well it may slow the worsening of nearsightedness, otherwise known as myopia, hence the name of the app....
There were also discussions about how to motivate and facilitate more of a corporate ethos to give back to the communities and more and more corporate social responsibility initiatives. Panels talked about how to foster more diversity, equity, and inclusion in the gaming industry such as having more diverse creators. Pollack mentioned one example of such as initiative called Girls Make Games.
