Short description Free the Work is a online web platform which is a talent agency for women and other under-represented creatives. It has evolved from an earlier intiative called Free the Bid. The Free The Bid pledge prompted brands and their agencies to include at least one woman among the three directors bidding for every commercial job. These commitments led to measurable increases in the number of women creators considered and hired for major ads. Free the Work has expanded the scope to include other media industries which employ creatives.
