The Fund PoolLogo Design Contest

My company is a platform for both angel investors and startup founders. Founders are able to make profiles for their startup and upload a pitch deck for investors to view. It is meant to be a deal sourcing platform for investors to streamline the process and help founders complete their funding rounds faster.

It is called The Fund Pool because investors pool their money together to invest in startups.

For the finalists, I want to focus on the icon only. I do not care or want any new ideas or edits for the text.

The idea of the website is that it connects founders (blue) and investors (green) so if you can somehow make it representing connection between the groups in another design? so please use these finalist designs as a base to think about this concept and make revisions

We want to focus on a icon that is modern and simple, but not as simple as an acronym. I would like to focus on the imagery. I have been trying to think of something that can incorporate money or wealth with water or pool imagery like waves or pool shapes. I want it to be overall simple. The pool refers to a pool of investors.

Finance vibes with subtle hints to water that can easily be used as mobile app icon
