How to break into IB as technology Analyst at a BB?

Currently a first year technology analyst at a BB. My first rotation deals with revenue generating technology as a result im exposed to the entirety of the trading business at said BB. I know it’s possible to get into IB. As it’s been done before.

I’m planning on applying for an MBA after I get a few years of WE under my belt but it’s mostly a mix of PT and FT programs. Any advice on how to approach this? I.e. networking and such? Or would pursuing an MBA be the path of least resistance?
