Prior to NAQT's presence in Asia, participation in quiz bowl was fairly limited, though teams like Shanghai-American-Puxi participated in multiple HSNCTs, most notable being Puxi's 16th-place finish at the 2006 HSNCT.
SAS-Puxi hosted the first good quizbowl tournament in China in November 2012 and has subsequently hosted the Concordia Invitational annually, sparking the formation of the Asian Circuit of quizbowl.
At the same time, David Madden developed IHBB, and has since then hosted local tournaments in various cities across Asia, culminating in an annual Asian Championship usually held at the Mariott Khao Lak resort in Thailand.
In 2018, NAQT revived the NAQT Asian Championship, with the 2018 edition hosted in Singapore, the 2019 division hosted in China. The 2020 iteration (slated to be hosted in Seoul) was canceled due to the COVID pandemic, but coaches in the Asian Circuit held an online tournament run on SCOTTIE. The 2021 and 2022 iterations both took place online and ran on NAQT sets, and were organized by Seoul Foreign School (SFS).
