May 26, 2017 at 18:58 comment added Ivan Di Liberti Mh, yes, my only assumption. The idea is quite easy, "which constructions have a universal property?!" This is just the easiest and maybe too naif way to ask this question.
May 26, 2017 at 18:54 comment added Andreas Blass Presumably you don't want the trivial solution where $I$ consists of just one object and its identity morphism, so that $C^I$ and $C\times I$ are isomorphic to $C$ and we can take $Q$ to be $P$ (up to isomorphism). Is this the only non-triviality assumption you want?
