W: Hello, and welcome to our program of successful business women. Today, we are looking at the story of Maria Silvers, the founder of a chain of coffee bars. She comes from Singapore, but later moved to London with her family. Her father, who was a factory manager, filled her with a belief in hard work. Maria studied political science at university. After leaving university, she became a teacher. When her father died, she went to New York for a break. Every morning, she'd go to a coffee bar. When she got back to London, she realized that there was nothing like those coffee bars. So she decided to give up her job and do something about it. She opened the first coffee bar in 1995, and her success was quick. She opened ten more the following year. Now she is proud of her success and plans to open eighty more besides the eighty-five she already has. And Maria is only 33 years old.
