As Africa’s markets become more interconnected and regulatory scrutiny deepens, competition law has emerged as one of the most influential forces shaping business strategy across the continent. At the centre of this evolution stands John Oxenham, Founder and Managing Partner of Primerio International, a firm that has redefined how competition and regulatory law is practised in Africa. With a career spanning Johannesburg, Washington, D.C., and multiple African jurisdictions, Oxenham has built a pan-African legal platform grounded in principle, technical excellence, and a clear strategic vision.
