J. Oppenheimer's legacy to his late Jennifer - incentivising scientists to tackle African challenges

In this thoughtful and moving interview, the scion of South Africa's storied Oppenheimers opens up about his late wife Jennifer; generational investments into Africa's future; and incentivising scientists to find solutions to the continent's challenges. It opens a rare window into an iconic family which is most comfortable operating out of the spotlight. Jonathan Oppenheimer shares a passion first articulated by his great grandfather Sir Ernest three quarters of a century ago - to do business in a way that makes a positive impact in the lives of Southern Africans.
