Idea
A finitely cocomplete category is a category which admits all finite colimits, that is a colimit for any finite diagram .
(A category with all small colimit is called a cocomplete category).
This is the notion formally dual to that of finitely complete categories, see there for more.
Finitely cocomplete categories are also called rex categories, although this is rarer than βlexβ for finitely complete categories.
