Safer Gambling Innovations: How Mindway AI Protects Players
In this episode of the iGamingCare Podcast, CEO Prof. Dr. Andreas Ditsche sits down with Rasmus Kjaergaard, CEO of Mindway AI, to discuss how artificial intelligence can support safer gambling and better player protection.
As a spin-out from Aarhus University, Mindway AI was built on groundbreaking research in neuroscience and neuroimaging. Rasmus shares how academic insights evolved into AI-driven tools that help operators identify risk patterns early. He also explains why sustainable player protection creates greater long-term value than short-term revenue spikes.
The conversation covers regulation, black market risks, Germanyโs strict gambling framework, and the myths surrounding tracking systems and responsible gambling technology. Rasmus describes what really happens after a player is flagged as at-risk. He also explains why collaboration among operators, regulators, and tech providers is key to building a safer ecosystem.

Industry Meets Academia: Gambling & Mental Health in the Nordics
In the latest episode of the iGamingCare podcast, Prof. Dr. Ditsche sits down with Ladan Esmalian Khamseh - a Ph.D. candidate at the Department of Psychosocial Science at the University of Bergen (UiB). She talks about her thesis, exploring the triggers behind gambling and gaming addiction.
Do factors like childhood trauma, anxiety, and depression make people more prone to gambling harm? If younger generations feel โinvincibleโ to the threat of gambling, how can we protect them? And, ultimately, should academia and the industry unite to better shield vulnerable players?
Listen to the full discussion, in which the pair, who met at the 2025 SNSUS Conference in Norway, attempt to bridge the gap between academic research and industry practice.
