Umberto Eco once wrote, “I believe that what we become depends on what our fathers teach us at odd moments when they aren't trying to teach us. We are formed by little scraps of wisdom.” The wisdom fathers pass on to us is priceless. Our dads are our guiding lights while we navigate the vagaries of life.


So, when Father’s Day rolls around on the third Sunday of June every year, most of us try to find as many ways as we can to celebrate our dads. This Father’s Day, founders of various startups talk about the lessons they have learnt and memories they have made with their father.


Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!
