example #2, colors are great, like font treatment although it is a bit overkill. It is not a festive event planner, yet a more professional edgy and sophisticated orientation, where CEO's of the largest banks in america may be the guest speakers. Needs to be cleaner and more sophisticated, less festive.
This is a serious event, where professionals like entreprenuers and top level executives are attending, this seems to fun and free-for-all. Needs to be cleaner and less busy.

like it alot. I am wondering if the colors could be improved a bit and the fonts are still awkward

could it look more like a slinky, connected emblem rather than a circle above circle?

I need more variety, what i am missing is a very streamlined, high tech- edgy logo
