UpHouse Bursary

We want to do what we can to fill our industry with diverse voices.

If there’s one thing that’s been our secret sauce as an agency, it’s finding talented people and building good people up.

We understand that there can be many barriers to entry when it comes to getting your foot in the door of the agency world.

We want to do our part to create a more inclusive industry

UpHouse believes diversity of thought, opinions and people make for better ideas, new perspectives and a stronger business.

It started with our paid internship program (which we advocate for anytime someone hands us a microphone). 

And now we’re continuing this work by creating the UpHouse Bursary to help reduce financial barriers so more diverse students can bring their talent and perspectives to our industry.
