If you’re a regular visitor to Visual Capitalist, you know that we’re your home base for data-driven, visual storytelling that helps explain a complex world.

But did you know there’s a way to get even more out of Visual Capitalist, all while helping support the work we do?

New to VC+ in May 2020

VC+ is our members program that gives you exclusive access to extra visual content and insightful special features. It also gets you access to The Trendline, our new members-only graphic newsletter.

So, what is getting sent to VC+ members in the coming weeks?

“Our Best Infographics on Wealth”

SPECIAL DISPATCH: A round up of the best performing wealth infographics on our site

Where does the world’s wealth lie?

We take a big-picture view of the world’s wealthiest countries, and also zero in on the richest people. In this VC+ special dispatch, our editors curate our best infographics to explain how some billionaires amassed their fortunes, and how economic wealth is expected to shift in the future.

“Introducing VC 360: A Critical Analysis”

SPECIAL DISPATCH: Every month we will take a graphic that has caught our eye and put a VC spin on it; uncovering our unique design and editorial process

VC 360 is a brand new VC+ monthly feature, which will give our members an exclusive look at how our team approaches different charts, graphs, and other visuals.

In each feature, we will select an interesting graphic from another media outlet or report and highlight how we, as a team, would have approached that topic, talking you through our techniques and modifications.

“Behind the Scenes with our New Book: Part 2”

SPECIAL DISPATCH: A detailed look at one of the ‘signals’ that will be featured in the book

When most books are published, you are only privy to the final result.

However, we’re taking VC+ members to see what happens behind the scenes.

Last month, we showed members some of the early decisions we had to make on the book. In this month’s edition, VC+ members will get a first look at one of our first confirmed chapters for the book. In addition, we’ll uncover why we chose particular data to represent that ‘signal’, while showing you the process behind creating the visual dashboards that’ll be used in the book.
