The last EFN Asia conference was held in 2016 in Manila. EFN 2015 was held in Thimphu, Bhutan, EFN 2014 and 2012 in Hong Kong, EFN 2013 in Bangkok, EFN 2011 in KL, EFN 2010 in Jakarta. There was no more EFN Asia conference since 2017 as the major speakers and participants tend to overlap with ALF's participants and speakers.

The ALF annual conferences started in 2013 then 2014, both held in Delhi and co-sponsored by CCS. I participated in ALF 2015 in Kathmandu, Nepal; ALF 2016 in KL, ALF 2017 in Mumbai, ALF 2018 in Jakarta. FNF became one of the major sponsors of ALF, perhaps since 2013.

My participation in ALF 2015 was mainly sponsored by Media 9/Business 360 in Kathmandu, thanks to Charu Chadha. My attendance in ALF 2016 to 2018 was sponsored by EFN Asia/FNF, thanks to Siggi and Pett.
