Dun & Bradstreet Credibility Corp. Joins Efforts with the U.S. Small Business Administration

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dun & Bradstreet Credibility Corp., the leading provider of credit building and credibility solutions for businesses, today announced its second consecutive year participating in the U.S. Small Business Administration’s National Small Business Week from May 12^th – 16^th.

Launched in 1963, National Small Business Week was created in order to recognize the nation’s entrepreneurs and small business owners.

“We speak with over 15,000 businesses a week and hear from them directly on the challenges they face,” said Jeff Stibel, Chairman and CEO of Dun & Bradstreet Credibility Corp. “Along with the SBA, we recognize how critical small businesses are to the overall economic recovery of our nation.”
