I like the “ORIGIN 8” and I like the cube.

Maybe combine those into something somehow. Enclose the ‘8’ in the cube, perhaps.

My sole contribution will be regarding line 4…

I’m in the Pharma industry, and that logo screams chemistry/cheminformatics. It looks like it could be the logo for dozens of companies we deal with on a regular basis in the industry.

Line 1 looks like leet-speek. Line 2 says mechanical engineering. Line 4 chemistry. Line 5 looks like a building supplies shop.

Of those I’d go for line 3, but replace the E with an actual equals sign, along these lines:

**CREAT=\>**  
And for heaven’s sake lose that yellow-green if you can, it’s bilious. Is it the corporate colour or something? It’s so bright it takes attention away from the actual text.

None are. Per being honest in reactions, font change or not, none of them really speak to me. They all look kind of like amateurish, generic logo throw up. It looks like what high school kids or an amateur playing with logos would come up with.

I think you need to re-work your approach.
