The text in gray is Frutiger
gsk is custom word mark... reminds me of Mylius
Looks like a slightly modified version of Friz Quadrata for the “gsk”. Are you looking for the GlaxoSmithKline wordmark typeface?

...or it could just be a trick of the low resolution in that image. :-)
[EDIT] Never mind what I said. Here’s a link to a better JPEG. The bottom of the “l” is definitely curved:
