Idea

An (∞,1)-category is nn-semiadditive for nn \in \mathbb{N} if (∞,1)-colimits over m-finite spaces coincide with their (∞,1)-limits in a canonical way (see Hopkins-Lurie 14, def. 4.4.2). Here for n=0n=0 the condition is that coproducts coincide with products, hence that bilimits exist.

So an (∞,1)-category that happens to be an ordinary category is 0-semiadditive precisely if it is a semiadditive category in the traditional sense. Generally, an (∞,1)-category is 0-semiadditive precisely if its homotopy category is semiadditive (Hopkins-Lurie 14, remark 4.4.13).
