Can you combine a handshake and a globe into a seamless design that is minimal, abstract & trendy? Or, try something new

We like this graphic of a globe. It's simple and clear without looking too plain or sterile. It looks professional but approachable. It is not too youthful or messy.

A font we liked.

Another sans serif font we liked.

Clean lines. Minimalistic Design. Simple.

Clean lines. Minimalistic Design. Simple. Implies movement.

This is a rough concept we put together that is the closest we could come to an idea we liked. But, we want something more polished and professional with cleaner lines and a graphic that feels more seamless. This design feels a little forced and busier than what we are looking for. It is also too youthful and cartoon-like than what we are looking for.

Implies partnership together and movement upward.

Local symbol. Implies movement and connection.

We like the abstract nature and that this implies movement. It's very simple and clean and feels like it starts locally and moves up and around in a globe / spherical shape.

We like that this represents multiple connections around the globe, and it's interesting and has character.

We like that this looks like something local that expands into something global or like a ripple effect reaching outward.

We sometimes describe our organization as a bridge, connecting local people to global projects.

We like the movement implied in this design that starts at a local point and moves outward from that.

We do not like this style of globe graphic. It makes designs look too busy.

Traditional handshake or "brotherly" handshake could work.
