To inspire collaboration in a co-creation environment, make gamification a central tenet to the experience. For example, have participants work together during certain activities to earn participation rewards.

This inspires them to work together, but also appeals to their sense of competition, so they are willing to collaborate and work together to earn more points and fully compete.
