Most concepts which need a logo are too complex to express through a
single symbol. Typically the goal is not to express the concept, but
rather stand in for it.

You can invent a meaningless glyph, and decide it now means that
concept. Example: biohazard trefoil.

Or, take an easily recognizable object and decide it now means that
concept. Example: World Wildlife Foundations panda logo.

What you don't want to do is include difficult-to-recognize objects,
or a scene with many details. Example: a scaly anteater operating a
welder.
