J.P. Morgan or BlackRock?

I have summer internship offers at both JPM and BlackRock, the roles are:

JPM: Investment Solutions at J.P. Morgan Private Bank

"Work with our teams to understand client needs and examine market activities to develop and execute strategies that help clients meet their financial goals

Partner with client advisors, bankers, global investment specialists and estate experts to help recommend investment and wealth management solutions that protect, manage and grow our clients' portfolios

Collaborate with various teams, including but not limited to market strategy, equity, and alternative investment teams to conduct research and analysis, develop products and respond to client needs as part of a Solutions Team".

BlackRock: Real Assets Product Strategy

The team that lies between the Sales team and Investments team. Focused on business growth for all Infrastructure and Real Estate products and strategies globally, with responsibility for platform intelligence, fundraising, client relationships, marketing and platform communications.

I'd rather be in a technical role and one day manage a portfolio, which option would be better suited for that career?
