Design an sharp logo for Revel Venture Group

Revel

Formally incorporated as the "Revel Venture Group", "Revel" is an umbrella brandname, much like what the "Virgin" name has become for the Virgin Group (Virgin Mobile, Virgin Records, Virgin Airlines, etc.). Initially, the primary focal area for the Revel Venture Group will be in Business Consulting, but is actively expanding into Startup Investment and Outdoor Sporting Equipment.

Currently operating out of San Francisco, Revel 'Advisors' is a consulting firm that works with early stage startups to accelerate growth and revenue acquisition through operational excellence and business intelligence.

In conjunction to the consulting firm, a secondary project is underway selling premium handcrafted skis to backcountry enthusiasts that will be leveraged as an insertion point to launch the Revel brand into other Outdoor Equipment goods and services.

In short, the Revel brand will communicate a feeling of precision, authenticity, and balance.

*Company Values:
1) Be a good human
2) Engineer excellence
3) Never stop improving
4) Seek balance
5) Play often

I've attached a few files that include my current logo as well as a creative scratchpad that I used to develop the initial look and feel. For fonts, I seem to have gravitated towards Syncopate and Cinzel both of which give me the sense of simplicity, clarity and strength. As you can see from the sample designs I was presented with in this process, I am looking for something clean and relatively simple.

***Requirements***:

--> I would like the "Revel" name and logo to be a standard that can be used interchangeably with the subsegment title for each (i.e. "Revel Advisors", "Revel Skis", etc.) as seen in the Design Revel pdf.

--> I am looking for a logo that includes a thumbnail image in addition to the text that can be used as a standalone in marketing and design. For example, search "north face logo" or "marmot logo" on google and note the type of thumbnail image I'm referring to.

--> There is a company called "Revel Partners" in NYC [ revelpartners dot com]. Although I do love their brand and feel, I will of course need to differentiate my brand from theirs.

--> no umbrella in the imagery (appreciate the application based on brief)

Cheers!
