As visual communication becomes the status quo, Canva's latest Visual Economy Report found 92% of business leaders now expect employees in non-design roles to possess design skills.

In just over 18 months since the introduction of Canva's workplace-focused Visual Suite, more than 95 million new users have joined the platform, a figure that first took the company nearly nine years to achieve.
