Here is the simplest example I can come up with.  I changed the four
figures to text.  Note that in comments, I show where I can add
\end{columns} and \begin{columns} to the org-generated .tex files, and I
get what I want, a 2x2 set of figures.

(START OF ORG FILE)

#+LATEX_CLASS: beamer
#+LATEX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [t]
#+BEAMER_THEME: Frankfurt
#+OPTIONS: H:2 toc:nil num:t

* Introduction
** Overview
*** 
  :PROPERTIES:
  :BEAMER_col: 0.5
  :END:
#+LaTeX: \centering
Figure 1 (top/left)

Text instead of figure Text instead of figure Text instead of figure
Text instead of figure Text instead of figure Text instead of figure
#+LaTeX: \vspace{0.1in}

*** 
  :PROPERTIES:
  :BEAMER_col: 0.5
  :END:
#+LaTeX: \centering
Figure 2 (top/right)

Text instead of figure

# If I put: \end{columns}
# and put : \begin{columns}
# here in the .tex output from org-mode, I get a 2x2 set of figures

*** 
  :PROPERTIES:
  :BEAMER_col: 0.5
  :END:
#+LaTeX: \centering
Figure 3 (bottom/left)

Text instead of figure

*** 
  :PROPERTIES:
  :BEAMER_col: 0.5
  :END:
#+LaTeX: \centering
Figure 4 (bottom/right)

Text instead of figure

(END OF ORG FILE)

Thank you!!
