Hi Natasha,
intuitively, I would cluster the errors on the region-industry-level
as this is the level where your variable varies. Depending on what you
are trying to do, you could either use twoway clustering or first
generate a cluster variable with -egen clustervar = group(region
industry)- and then using this.
Best,
Nils
