Abstract
Two alternative methods for forecasting micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS)-a type of disruptive innovation are offered. The first method improves upon the currently used method by considering pro-innovation bias and distributional effects of expert opinions. The second method builds upon the established forecasting literature. Both methods are described in a detailed applied manner to encourage and facilitate their future use
