West Coast EB to NY EB/BB -- Which groups are worth it?

Hi everyone, I will be spending summer at an EB on the West Coast (Moelis LA/CVP SF/EVR Tech M&A) this summer and am possibly looking to lateral to a BB/EB in NYC full-time.Assuming I want to exit into VC/GE (would like to keep the door open to a tech-related one, but am open to a non-tech one as well) in the future, what groups in NYC should I target that will be worth it coming from one of the aforementioned EBs?

edit: recognise that exiting into VC/GE might be better on the West Coast, but I’m open to PE as well so essentially am just wondering if there were any groups in NYC that would allow for even more optionality. tyia
