Portfolio trajectory

Launching fewer products and retiring more than it adds. New launches 2000–2023.

Launch rate: 63 new products/year in 2021–2022, versus 112.667 in 2018–2020.

The review snapshot ends in 2023, so a product last reviewed in 2022–2023 is usually still active; earlier years are the real retirements.
