Consulting -> VC Resume?

Hi all, hoping for some quick resume advice.

I'm a management consultant recruiting for VC. I've worked on a variety of projects at my firm, including some big / strategically interesting non-tech-related ones, and some tech-related ones (mostly software CDDs).

In order to get the most looks from VCs, should the 3 case examples in my resume be as tech-heavy as possible, or should I aim to show more versatility / range?

Current configuration is as follows:

  1. Software CDD
  2. Another software CDD
  3. Growth strategy (not tech-related)

I could replace either software CDD with:

  1. Mega-merger synergy assessment (not tech-related)
  2. Mega-merger CDD (not tech-related)

Should I? Thanks - appreciate the help.
