The ARC Centre of Excellence for Creative Industries and Innovation (CCI) was established in July 2005. It is the first Centre of Excellence funded outside the science, engineering and technology sectors.

The Centre has an ambitious research agenda organised around three themes
Creative Innovation: Content, IT, Design, BPM, Enterprise
Innovation Policy: Innovation Policy, Law, Economics
Creative Human Capital: Industry, Education, Workforce, Consumers

and 6 research programs
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

The media background paper prepared for CCI's June 2008 conference provides more details on the ideas behind CCI's development.
