Would MBA Admission notice the VC name (Startup profile) ?

Hi all,

I'm an international, working in a mid-stage startup in their strategy function, doing fundraising, M&A, and GTM/market entry, i.e., a classic consultant (after 3 yrs at S&)

The thing is, the startup is quite unknown outside of the region, but I managed to grab a few well-known impact backers, i.e: TPG Rise/ BlueOrchard/ Bill Gates fund. So I'm planning to put these names onto my CV (that I actually sourced and led the whole transaction to end, full DD) 

Would it improve/ or do nothing to my profile when applying to T15? Does the admission realize the different VC names?
