Ratan Tata, the octogenarian industrialist who steered the $128 billion Tata Group for decades, has backed a startup that connects senior citizens with young graduates for meaningful friendships. He met with the Goodfellows team and their founder Shantanu Naidu. "I think people that have seen a major part of their life unfurl before them need and enjoy companionship without any expectations, which is not transactional but involves fondness for companionship, giving one's time and effort to make another person's happiness more secure. I would like to salute Shantanu and all of you who are a part of this initiative," Mr Tata said.
