The ARC Centre of Excellence in Creative Industries and Innovation drives the development of an Australian creative innovation system to maximise the national economic and cultural benefits of digital content industries. It integrates research across a range of disciplines to develop new modes of access and distribution for user-led innovation. The centre provides integrated, empirically grounded solutions to structural, conceptual and policy problems as new technologies, end-user activism and semi-professional practices are challenging traditional models of production and consumption in the creative value chain.
The Centre's research projects are organised into six key program areas:
1. Crisis in Innovation;
2. Creative Workforce;
3. Citizen-Consumer;
4. Enterprise Formation and Sustainability;
5. Legal and Regulatory Impasses and Innovations;
6. International Creative Content Cultures and Australian Advantage..
