Definition

The local cocompletion of a bicategory ๐’ฆ\mathcal{K} is the hom-category-wise free cocompletion of ๐’ฆ\mathcal{K}. Abstractly, this can be seen as a change of base for bicategories enriched in a monoidal bicategory, along the left pseudoadjoint from the 2-category of categories to the 2-category of cocomplete categories.
