Currently a second year analyst interested in GE/VC (at a tech group in BB) and was wondering how to approach HH with this when also interested in PE?

Curious too
Same
GE and PE are similar, but VC is not. You should use coffee chats, research, leverage your network, etc. to choose between PE and VC before approaching HHs - otherwise you’ll appear fickle/undecided and likely get deprioritized.
Gotcha - appreciate the helpful advice! What are some HH that tend to have a more venturey client list?

Depends which definition of GE you're working with but fair
If you ask for all three you’ll get none.
