Booth has an IMBA, and from the people that I've talked to, it doesn't really add much value over a regular MBA...all that it does is tell employers that you want, and like, to go abroad. That signal is a positive for a lot of companies, but a negative for others.
I don't think the "I" will really give you any punch over the individual, who doesn't have the "I", but who has studied abroad for a term and did an internship abroad. The "I", however, will potentially make domestic recruiting more difficult (no data to support this claim, however...just an thought).
