Christmas Present

As One Year Comes to an End, We Say Thank You

Dec 31, 2026 Altair Partners 3 min read

As one more year comes to an end, we want to take a moment to pause, reflect, and say thank you.

This year was special for us in many ways. It was our first year as Altair Partners. And as the clock turns to 00:00 on New Year’s Eve, we officially reach eight months of operation as a creative agency built to bring happiness, clarity, and growth to businesses and people.

It hasn’t been an easy year — not for you, and not for us. Many challenges tested all of us in different ways. But the most important part is this: we made it through. Together, we are closing a small chapter and opening a new one — a chapter we’re calling Journey 2026.

Gratitude for the People Behind the Work

Altair Partners would not exist without the people behind the scenes.

We want to sincerely thank:

  • Everyone who wrote articles for us
  • Everyone who helped with design, advertising, marketing, and strategy
  • Everyone who contributed time, talent, and effort — even in small ways

Creative work is never built alone. Every project, every idea, and every success is the result of collaboration.

And to everyone reading this — thank you as well. Even if we didn’t interact in the way we expected or planned, we all impacted each other in some way. Support, attention, feedback, and trust all matter more than people realize.

Thank You to Our Partners and Community

We want to thank all of our partners for trusting us during our very first year. Your belief in a young agency means more than words can express.

We are also deeply grateful to Green America for their support and for the work they do to promote sustainability, ethical business practices, and positive social impact. Being aligned with organizations that stand for meaningful change is incredibly important to us as we grow.

In addition, we want to thank the independent platforms and sources that recognized our work and ranked us among:

  • Top Web Development Agencies in Oregon
  • Top Creative Agencies in Portland
  • Top Branding Agencies in the World for the Future

These mentions are deeply meaningful to us — not because of the titles themselves, but because they reflect the work, care, and intention behind everything we do.

None of this would be possible without the people behind the work.

Looking Ahead to Journey 2026

As we step into 2026, we are excited and motivated by what’s ahead.

In the coming year, we plan to:

  • Expand our team and bring in more talented people
  • Grow the diversity and capacity of our creative work
  • Expand our involvement in donations and giving back
  • Continue building meaningful partnerships
  • Keep creating work that helps businesses and people move forward

This next chapter is about growth — not just in size, but in impact.

A Note From Our Founder

“Altair Partners was built with one simple belief — that creativity should bring clarity, growth, and happiness. This first year showed us how powerful people can be when they believe in each other. I’m deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey so far, and I’m excited for what we’re building together in 2026.”
