Nexus GroupLogo Design Contest

Nexus Group is a high end personal consulting business. The word Nexus means connect. I would like a clean, sharp Nexus name along with either a “N” for the logo or a sharp abstract image. I’m open to the idea of having the word Group in the logo as well. I’m going for simple, clean, sharp and eye pleasing logo. I’d like to see an original design not something that is pulled from the internet. Would like to see a cool abstract image that’s unique.

I need the black and white to look great. I would like to see samples in B&W but am also interested to seeing some color. Grey may also work.

The word Nexus in sharp clean lettering with a letter n as the logo to the left of the word. Or a cool abstract image to the left of the word.

I've attached an image that I think looks cool. it looks like a puzzle which could represent connect. Maybe create a similar image that could give the same feel.

I have three main concepts for what a logo could like like:
1, monogram with a "n" or a "ng.
2, An abstract shape (or a few smaller shapes)
3. Something that shows connection.
