The development precincts and their respective functions in Cyberjaya, Malaysia
Development Precincts
Functions
Enterprise zone
The enterprise zone is designed based on the concept of a technology park with a focus on innovative
building design, quality environment and attractive landscape. This precinct is the backbone of
Cyberjaya, with ready-built enterprise buildings that are intelligent and eco-friendly. This zone acts as a
catalyst for the development of a highly competitive cluster of IT and multimedia companies,
and product and services that employ substantial number of knowledge workers, fulfilling the goals
envisioned by the MSC.
Commercial Zone
The commercial zone realises Cyberjaya’s potential as the economic hub. Located in the main street of
Cyberjaya, the Central Business District (CBD) it is designed to be a place with creative and innovative
design opportunities and commercial potentials. The commercial zone locates commercial buildings,
designed and constructed by independent developers. The completion of Cyberjaya CBD which offers
day and night time facilities, including food shops, a shopping centre and entertainment has given a
boost to the shopping activities.
Residential Zone
The residential zone promotes a high level of privacy whilst conveys a strong sense of community and
integration with the overall development through the concept of residential park. It emphasises on a
residential environment that meets high-class international standards, caters for the needs of top
management and promotes smart home features. This zone is inclusively the largest proportion of total
land in Cyberjaya, and designed as a world-class green living environment that caters for the high
quality lifestyle of its residents.
Recreational Zone
The development elements of Cyberjaya are interconnected by the overall green and continuous natural
open space network. The recreational components envisaged as ‘cyberpark’, offering active and passive
sports and recreation facilities. In creating better sense of place, parks, pedestrian and cycling paths are
designed to preserve green, water bodies and wetlands for a better microclimate.
Institutional Zone
The institutional zone acts to further promote knowledge based activities and it is envisioned to be the
catalyst in creating a research community, utilizing the MSC unique environment. There are three major
private higher education institutions in Cyberjaya i.e. Multimedia University (MMU), LimKokWing
University College of Creative Technology (LUCCT) and Cyberjaya University
College of Medical Sciences(CUCMS). While MMU focuses mainly on multimedia and engineering,
LUCCT concentrates more on creative arts and design, architectural, fashion and industrial design.
Meanwhile, medicine is the main course conducted by CUCMS.
