This sounds like you want to use CKAN 2.0's "organizations" feature.
It's enabled by default and usable via the web frontend. You can create
organizations and each one gets its own page with a searchable list of
datasets, you can manage which users are members of an organization and
able to add datasets to it, etc.

There usn't a user guide for it yet afaik so you'll have to just play
around with the user interface.
