BCG MATRIX – SQUARE RIBBON

Slide Content

The slide presents a BCG matrix with descriptive icons representing the four categories: Stars, Question Marks, Cash Cows, and Dogs. Stars indicate high market growth and high market share, typically representing products or services with strong market positions in fast-growing industries. Question Marks represent high market growth but low market share, usually requiring significant investment to increase market share. Cash Cows, with low market growth but high market share, are established and profitable products requiring less investment. Dogs have both low market share and growth, often considered for divestment or repositioning.

Graphical Look

• The slide features a large bold title "BCG MATRIX – SQUARE RIBBON" at the top.
• A 2x2 matrix with colored squares serves as the centerpiece. Each square has rounded corners and contains an icon or symbol:
• Top left: A blue square with two white stars, one larger than the other.
• Top right: A green square with a white question mark.
• Bottom left: A purple square with a white icon of a cow's head with a dollar sign on its forehead.
• Bottom right: An orange square with a white icon of a dog's head.
• Two intersecting gray ribbon banners run across the matrix, defining the axes of market growth (vertical) and market share (horizontal).
• The matrix is placed against a neutral gray and white background.

The slide has a modern and clean design with a balanced layout and a professional color scheme that provides clear contrast and visual guidance for the matrix categories.
