As editor-in-chief, Chapman will be in charge of the new column Field News, discussing major events in the venture and investment business in Russia and abroad.
The former spy said she would like to head the newspaper to "promote a positive image of young entrepreneurs, innovators, and technological business managers." Otherwise, she believes, it will be difficult to create an innovation economy in Russia.
Chapman and ten other Russians were arrested in the U.S. in June 2010 on suspicion of espionage. In July, they were returned to Russia in exchange for four men accused by the Kremlin of spying for foreign intelligence services in Russia.
In October 2010, Chapman became an advisor with no fixed office hours for Fondservicebank President Alexander Volovnik. In December, she joined the Public Council of Young Guard youth movement of the United Russia party.
Starting in January, she became a TV host of REN TV's World Mysteries with Anna Chapman show.
In an interview to BBC in March, Chapman said she would like to produce 3-D TV programs and manage charity projects. ( rian.ru )
