The Jewel is a 2.5-hectare project by Robinsons Land Corporation at the corner of EDSA and Pioneer Street in Mandaluyong City. Positioned to become an architectural icon, The Jewel will consist of four office towers, each named after diamond cuts – Asscher, Trilliant, Marquise, and Peruzzi – collectively referred to as the ATMP Towers. To enhance its identity, each tower will feature eight-meter-high art installations, namely a butanding, a Philippine Eagle, a tarsier, and a tamaraw. These symbolic representations of the country's natural gifts will serve as The Jewel's "way finders" within its impressive lobbies, boasting 12-meter ceiling heights. RLC envisions The Jewel as an icon synonymous with Filipino talent and ingenuity, captivating visitors from around the world.

Formerly called Forum Robinsons and Robinsons Place Pioneer, the property was a shopping mall located in Mandaluyong, Metro Manila, Philippines owned and operated by Robinsons Land. The former Forum Robinsons was the 18th mall opened by Robinsons and the first mall in Mandaluyong with a gross floor area of 56,000 square metres. The former name Robinsons Place Pioneer was dubbed after its location, Pioneer Street. Back then, the property was envisioned to become a one-stop shop for everyone in Cybergate Complex which was in turn envisioned to become a cyberhub in the city. Moreover, it was repositioned as a cyber lifestyle mall to better serve the needs of the tech generation, a large concentration of whom resides and works in the Cybergate community and neighboring cities. In 2010, Robinsons Place Pioneer was renamed to Forum Robinsons to re-position itself as a cyber lifestyle mall focusing on IT products and to align itself with the vision of the Cybergate Complex.

Forum Robinsons made its last day of operations on April 30, 2022 to give way for its redevelopment works, which will feature office towers atop the new mall area. According to Robinsons Land Corporation (RLC), the Forum Robinsons property will be transformed into a "mixed-use development," which will include four office towers and "an upscale shopping mall." The soon-to-be-constructed mall will consist of seven levels with new dining and retail concepts, improved cinemas, and even expansive outdoor amenities.
