Telecentre-Europe organized Get Online Day in 4 March 2010, a pan-European event that was part of the eSkills Week 2010, coordinated by Digital Europe and European SchoolNet, and funded by the European Commission's DG Enterprise and Industry. Get Online Day was supported by national partners, NGOs, telecentres, libraries, schools, information access points and aimed to bring people online, targeting mainly the offline Europeans, people that have never used the internet and were consequently not aware of its benefits.

The global market for information and communications technology (ICT) is expected to grow by 1.9 percent to 2.3 trillion euros in 2010.
