ARC Centre of Excellence for Creative Industries and Innovation (CCI) Details
The ARC Centre of Excellence for Creative Industries and Innovation (CCI) was established in 2005 to focus research and development on the contribution that the creative industries and their contributing disciplines can make to a more dynamic and inclusive innovation system.Block funded by the Australian Research Council from 2005-13, it is acknowledged as a global leader in this emerging field. It is a broadly-based, cross-disciplinary, internationally focused Centre embracing both fundamental theoretical and highly applied research in media, cultural and communication studies, law, education, economics and business and information technology, addressing key problems and opportunities arising for Australia, the Asian region, and for the wider world, from innovation in both the creative economy and the broader service economy. It addresses the nature of the field as rapidly-moving and internationally-focused, with extensive research links and international nodes established or planned in Britain, Singapore and China.The Centre plays a significant role in theoretical and strategic debates with academic, policy, and industry interlocutors, as well as working extensively on new empirical and technical methodologies, including, for example, the creation of new statistical approaches to measuring the creative economy, new software solutions for creative enterprise, and ethnographic action research.
