Logo is the short version of logotype. It is the name of a business designed specifically for that company.IBM, written in blue stripes, is a logo. A symbol is just that. A symbol (but not the name of the company) that represents that company. The apple with the piece out of it is a symbol of Apple computers.

Hope that helps!
