Career Crossroads: Need Advice please!

Hi everyone, I have a number of opportunities that are in front of me. Ultimately, I want to go into a strategic planning/corporate development role for a media/tech co. The three opportunities I have are: - P&A position at a BB bank for their AM division - Analyst position at a BDC - Marketing consulting role

Which would provide the best experience/skillset to set myself up for a strategy/corp. development opportunity down the road?
