Talking about coincidences. Was it meant to be? It must have been written in the stars that we pitched on Esther’s holiday, Purim.
Today Esther.ai, pitched at the Alan B. Levan | NSU Broward Center of Innovation for the first time to a large audience. They loved the pitch and we received a lot of positive feedback.
Today, 6th of March 2023, the holiday of Purim is celebrated.
The story of the joyous holiday of Purim might appear sombre at first glance: It tells of the near-destruction of the Jewish people as decreed by Haman, an adviser to the Persian King Ahasuerus.
However, Ahasuerus’ newly crowned queen, Esther — who replaced Vashti when she was thrown out of the kingdom — is secretly a Jew.
Due to her courage and her eventual role in saving the Jews, the story of Purim is known as “Megillat Esther,” or the Scroll of Esther.
