Vc internship vs LMM pe for tech IB

Which internship would be more valuable for IB sa recruiting specifically focusing on tech and tmt groups (most likely west coast focused), an internship with an early stage technology venture capital fund, or a LMM generalist private equity firm? This would be for freshman summer, and I currently have experience as a venture scout, search fund, and corporate vc externship (lowkey bs). Any insight would be appreciated!

Thanks
