What is a Bubble Chart?

Bubble charts extend scatter plots by adding a third dimension through bubble size. The x-axis and y-axis represent two variables, while the bubble size represents a third variable, and color can represent a fourth variable. This multidimensional visualization is powerful for identifying patterns and relationships across multiple variables simultaneously.

Bubble charts are commonly used in venture capital analysis to show company valuations (bubble size) relative to growth and profitability, and in marketing to analyze market opportunity (size) against market share and growth rate. The visual appeal and multidimensional capability make bubble charts effective for presentations and executive dashboards, though care must be taken to ensure the visualization isn't overly complex.
