PMX Unveiled: A Pioneering Virtual Book Launch Sets New Standards in Execution Excellence
On March 24, 2025, Abiodun Oshinibosi, the visionary founder of Abelinis Nigeria Limited, introduced the world to his transformative book, PMX, a work that elevates project management and experiential marketing to new heights. The virtual launch, a seamless three-hour event orchestrated by Abelinis’ skilled digital solutions team, captivated a global audience, drawing participants from varied backgrounds and industries.
The event showcased an impressive lineup of distinguished reviewers who brought depth and insight to the occasion. Among them was Tsola Barrow, Principal Consultant at Applegryn & Barrow Consulting Limited and author of the book’s foreword. Joining him was Dr. Rotimi Olaniyan, Programme Director at Nottingham Business School UK and Past President of EXMAN, a marketing expert with over 30 years of industry experience. The review panel also featured Tolu Fadamitan, a Project Manager and Product Specialist at Dell Technology USA with more than 26 years of expertise in project management and experiential marketing, and Warren Thompson, a seasoned business process professional from Canada with over 30 years of experience across diverse cultural landscapes. Together, their compelling reviews underscored the book’s significance and impact.
With flawless execution and a global reach, the PMX launch not only celebrated a groundbreaking addition to the fields of project management and experiential marketing but also redefined what a virtual book launch can achieve.
Those who attended the virtual launch and the industry watchers disclosed that their insightful commentary underscored the book’s significance in providing a comprehensive guide to project management and experiential marketing.
Abiodun’s philanthropic spirit shone through as he announced that the plan for this phase is to get at least 300 copies of the book to undergraduates in different institutions with related studies at no cost to the students. In achieving this plan, Abiodun sought for endowment from his friends, professional colleagues and family members.
The proceeds from the book would support Rotary International’s mission to eradicate polio worldwide. This gesture resonated deeply with members of Rotary International, who showed their support for one of their own.
The reveal of the book was unique as audiences were made to go through a fun puzzle game which sequentially revealed the cover design of the book.

The book PMX underscores the significance of content in driving successful projects. Two notable case studies illustrate this point:
Access Bank Lagos City Marathon: Under the visionary leadership of Otunba Bukola Olopade, this event achieved remarkable growth, earning a gold label marathon status, becoming the largest marathon in Africa. Strategic marketing campaigns and meticulous event management were key to this success. Another case illustrated is the All Africa Music Award (AFRIMA): Founded in 2014 by Mike Dada, in collaboration with the African Union (AU), AFRIMA celebrates and rewards African musical talents, promoting cultural heritage. Today, AFRIMA has evolved into a massive project, exported from Nigeria to other African countries, achieving unprecedented success. These case studies demonstrate the impact of effective content strategy and meticulous project management in achieving remarkable outcomes.
PMX is more than just a book – it’s a testament to Abiodun’s commitment to excellence and his continuous desire to give back to the industry as evident with Fanz Championship Africa where the winners don’t just get rewarded but their communities enjoy projects in Health & Sanitation, Education and Innovation. As he celebrates his 50th birthday, this book serves as a unique and impactful gift, offering invaluable insights and lessons for project managers and experiential marketing professionals.
