In the 1940s, Steve Rogers and his friend Bucky Barnes bring dates to the New York World's Fair, where a "Technology of the Future" exhibit is being presented by Howard Stark himself. Notable demonstrations were the Original Human Torch and a flying car based of repulsor technology (the same Howard's son, Tony, would perfect for his Iron Man Armor). The success of the presentation would lead Howard Stark to later expand the event into it's own Stark Expo.
