work that month? I'm from Europe, I want to come to Los Angeles to meet several people, and have a sort of business trip but I am free only during August. Will everybody in LA be away during that month or most companies are open?

I mean, in the part of Europe I'm from, August is the month where everybody travels. do most Americans travel/are in vacation in August or I will able to do some business meetings or simply informal meetings in Los Angeles?
