Abstract
Let M be a monoidal ∞-category with colimits. In this paper we study colimits of M-functors A → B where B is left-tensored over M and A is an M-enriched category. We prove that the enriched Yoneda embedding Y: A → PM(A) yields a universal M-functor. In case when A has a certain monoidal structure, the category of enriched presheaves PM(A) inherits the same monoidal structure and the enriched Yoneda embedding acquires the structure of universal monoidal M-functor.

Permission to copy for private use granted. 1One can think of colimits for functors of two kinds: functors from one M-enriched category to another, and functors from an M-enriched category to a category left tensored over M. In this paper we deal with this second kind of functors.
