Cybergate Dumaguete Rises: Robinsons Offices Strengthens Visayas Footprint
March 26, 2025

Robinsons Offices, the office buildings division of Robinsons Land Corporation (RLC), celebrated the topping off of Cybergate Dumaguete on March 20, 2025, bringing its visionary office development in Negros Oriental closer to completion. Bringing Robinsons Offices’ core mission of keeping families together to its 13th key city, the project reinforces RLC’s vision of fostering sustainable economic growth and regional development. Creating a dynamic synergy of work and play, Cybergate Dumaguete is strategically located within the Robinsons Dumaguete complex in Calindagan, Dumaguete City

Empowering Local Communities

Jericho P. Go, RLC Senior Vice President and General Manager of Robinsons Offices, emphasized the impact of the complex to the community, stating, “At Robinsons Offices, we believe in bringing opportunities closer to home, allowing families to stay together while pursuing meaningful careers, uplifting the whole community. Alongside our other developments, Cybergate Dumaguete will help create jobs and stimulate economic growth beyond Metro Manila.”

This premium three-level office building atop a four-storey mall provides approximately 7,200 square meters of office space, specifically designed to meet the needs of modern businesses, particularly those in the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry. Cybergate Dumaguete features thoughtfully planned office layouts, dual-entry lobbies for ease of access, and direct connectivity to Robinsons Dumaguete at the ground level, ensuring seamless integration between office and retail environments. The building’s flexible and efficient floor plates are built to meet BPO-grade standards—a first in the city—offering companies the scalability needed to support high-density operations and a variety of layout configurations.

Tenants will also enjoy sweeping views of the Cuernos de Negros mountain range, including the majestic Mount Talinis—an awe-inspiring backdrop that enhances the overall atmosphere of the workplace. These natural vistas, combined with the building’s inclusive design elements such as spacious ramps and a 1:1 elevator per floor ratio, help create an environment that is not only visually uplifting but also accessible, comfortable, and conducive to productivity.

A Deep Talent Advantage

Cybergate Dumaguete leverages the city’s exceptional educational institutions and skilled talent pool, widely recognized for their high proficiency in English. Renowned universities such as Silliman University—the first American-established university in Asia—and Negros Oriental State University consistently produce graduates equipped with in-demand skills in business, IT, and engineering, aligning perfectly with BPO requirements.

Dumaguete City’s infrastructure makes daily commuting smooth and efficient, with minimal traffic congestion across key routes. Located within the Robinsons Dumaguete complex, a dedicated public transport terminal serves passengers from across Negros Oriental and nearby provinces—making Cybergate Dumaguete highly accessible to today’s increasingly mobile workforce.

Situated only 15 minutes from Dumaguete-Sibulan Airport, the location offers convenient access to Metro Manila and nearby provinces through frequent flights. Ferry services to Cebu and Bohol are also readily available, providing regional connectivity for business travelers and employees commuting from nearby islands. Major thoroughfares like Negros South Road and Jose Romero Road further enhance accessibility and commuting ease

Sustainable Innovation

With sustainability at its core, Cybergate Dumaguete includes numerous eco-friendly features designed for long-term operational efficiency. A Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) air-conditioning system, energy-efficient LED lighting, and low-emissivity (Low-E) glass windows help block heat from sunlight while letting in natural light, reducing the need for air conditioning—a bonus for tenants focused on managing energy costs. Complementing these features are a rainwater harvesting system for irrigation and toilet flushing, dual piping systems, and low-flow fixtures that conserve water.

Highlighting the project's sustainability commitment, Go remarked, “Cybergate Dumaguete is a well-planned premium development that answers the needs not only for today's workforce, but also of future generations. Its sustainable design ensures operational efficiency and the potential of lower utility costs for our tenants. This is all part of our unrelenting dedication to environmental stewardship and to delivering future-ready, high-performance workspaces that meet the evolving needs of our partners and locators.”

Robinsons Land’s Regional Impact

Robinsons Land Corporation actively contributes to Central Visayas' progress—including Bacolod and Iloilo—through various residential, commercial, and retail developments. These projects are part of RLC’s broader mission to uplift local economies and improve quality of life for countless Filipinos across the region.

Aligned with Robinsons Offices' advocacy for decentralization, Cybergate Dumaguete supports the ongoing shift toward reverse migration, encouraging businesses to locate outside congested urban centers. Recognized as a "Next Wave City" for BPO investments, Dumaguete is rapidly evolving into a service-oriented economy, offering tremendous potential for growth in a dynamic, well-supported environment.

As Cybergate Dumaguete rises, it reflects the resilience, innovation, and regional unity that define Central Visayas—strengthening Robinsons Offices’ unwavering commitment to inclusive growth, long-term investment, and sustainable nation-building.
