Patient Stay Program
[About Us]
C2I Accelerator is a biotechnology and life-sciences incubator founded over 10 years ago to advance early-stage drug discovery. For more than a decade, we have conducted early-stage translational research in drug discovery while incubating many of Boston’s leading biotech and medtech companies. Through our work, we realized that therapies are only impactful when patients can access the care behind them. That insight moved us beyond the lab and into the lives of families traveling to Boston for complex medical care.
Through our internal network and nonprofit partners, we provide fully compensated homes where patients and caregivers can rest, cook, heal, and stay together during their hardest moments. We operate within Boston’s short-term rental framework, using revenue from standard guest stays to sustain free accommodations for medical families referred by our nonprofit partners, creating a compassionate, self-funded model that supports patients at no cost to the City. Our mission—shared now through R Living—is to ensure medical innovation reaches every patient it was meant to help.
“The accommodations really help with the whole healing process, as it relieves so much stress and families are able to relax. We don’t know what we would have done without R Living's generosity. The impact on our lives has been profound, and we just cannot thank them enough.”

Affordable Patient Stays
Through our strong internal network and partnerships with local non-profits, we now provide subsidized and fully compensated accommodation for patients and their families traveling to Boston for medical treatment, the very treatments we aim to develop. We realized that breakthrough therapies only matter if patients can afford to access them, and R Living is our way of ensuring that medical innovation reaches every patient it was meant to help.

R Living represents the next step in our long-standing commitment to healthcare by ensuring that the progress we help create in the lab is matched by compassion and accessibility in real life.
Looking Ahead
We welcome collaboration with the City Council, hospitals, and community groups to preserve and strengthen this
essential housing pathway.
