Including a pitch/ research with networking emails?

Ive been looking to intern at a hedge fund in the fall and Im beginning to email local funds, I was wondering whether including a pitch or equity research in my emails would be helpful?

For context, Im doing a STEM degree and I do know the technicals through 2 summer projects; i do feel like since its not work experience I need to show some sort of proof that i do in fact know somethings.

Any advice on reaching out or the aformentioned would be very much appreciated

Thats kinda funny. Was hoping to do either a certain mining or biotech company. But I still see your point. 

 

A few questions if you don't mind

Hey is it better to send an email first and saying you can send a pitch or just sending it straight up? another user mentioned spam filters.

I was thinking a 4-6 page document with citations is the ideal length or would shorter be better?
