Investor Relations Related to IB?

Hey Monkeys, I have an offer for an Investor Relations internship this summer at a public traded company. (Currently my only offer). I was wondering how related and relevant this would be to the FT IB recruiting process. Would this be looked upon as a step forward to IB or as an irrelevant finance role? If it's considered irrelevant is there any ideas on how I could spin it to become more relevant? Thanks so much.
